// Class defining methods RandGaussT, which is derived from RandGauss.
// The user interface is identical.  
// RandGaussT ---
//   Always uses exactly one flat random from the engine
//   Is stateless so that saveEngineStatus works even if invoked knowing
//   only that the distribution is a HepRandom.  (RandGauss is not stateless.)
//   Is accurate to more than 12 decimal places in all cases, and more so 
//   near the end points.
//   Runs about as fast as RandGauss.
// RandGaussT utilizes HepStat::flatToGaussian(r), so its effective footprint
// (for the tables used) is almost 30K bytes.
