[issue41421] Random.paretovariate sometimes raises ZeroDivisionError for small alpha

Tim Peters added the comment: I'm inclined to ignore this. No actual user has complained about this, and I doubt any ever will: it's got to be rare as hen's teeth to use a parameter outside of, say, [0.1, 10.0], in real life. The division error can't happen for those. For "small" alpha, the

James Corbett added the comment: I was careless in my example, it would need to be `cls.skipTest(reason)`. However, that really doesn't have anything to do with why it should be a `classmethod` instead of an instance method: it's so that you can call `skipTest` from `classmethods`, namely `s

Raymond Hettinger added the comment: I don't feel a need to change anything, my post hit a few seconds after yours :-) That said, "return u ** (-1.0 / alpha)" would be a slight, but nice improvement. It might also be reasonable to document a safe range of alpha values. --
