The first two moments of the distribution and a recurrence relation among probabilities are obtained. The present distribution is supposed to be more general in nature and wider in scope.Submitted to the Electronic Journal of Statistics (http://www.i-journals.org/ejs/) by the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (http://www.imstat.org)Statistics Theory33C99 (Primary)text
