ran_gaussian

Draw a random normal (Gaussian) deviate. This has been copied with minor changes from the GSL function gsl_ran_gaussian. Polar (Box-Mueller) method; See Knuth v2, 3rd ed, p122

Parameters:

	rng	Rng random number generator instance
	sigma	standrade deviation paramter for gaussian distribution

Returns the gaussian random deviate.
