_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     The parameter of an exponential distribution, used by Exp-class

     Objects can be created by calls of the form 'new("ExpParameter",
     rate)'. Usually an object of this class is not needed on its own,
     it is generated automatically when an object of the class Exp is
     instantiated.

_S_l_o_t_s:

     '_r_a_t_e': Object of class '"numeric"': the rate of an exponential
          distribution 

     '_n_a_m_e': Object of class '"character"': a name / comment for the
          parameters 

_E_x_t_e_n_d_s:

     Class '"Parameter"', directly.

          of the parameter of the distribution 

     _r_a_t_e<- 'signature(object = "ExpParameter")': modifies the slot
          'rate' of the parameter of the distribution
