Division of distribution objects.
Description
Handles dist / scalar (delegates to dist * (1/scalar)),
scalar / dist, and dist / dist.
Usage
## S3 method for class 'dist'
x / y
Arguments
x
first operand
y
second operand
Value
A simplified distribution or edist
Examples
# Division by scalar reuses multiplication rule
