#' Univariate discrete point mass priors
#'
#' \code{PointMassPrior} is a sub-class of \code{\link[=Prior-class]{Prior}}
#' representing a univariate prior over a discrete set of points with positive
#' probability mass.
#'
#' @slot theta cf. parameter 'theta'
#' @slot mass cf. parameter 'mass'

#' @seealso To represent continuous prior distributions use \code{\link{ContinuousPrior}}.
