Use the GenericDiscreteDistribution class to represent a probability distribution with known probabilities that doesn't fit any of the standard discrete distributions.

A GenericDiscreteDistribution is defined by the first integer value for which the probability is nonzero, and the probabilities for this value and all subsequent nonzero values.
