> * Class uses file IO (CM should not be concerned with data persistence)
> * Class uses the "java.net" API (ditto)
> I'd think that the core functionality could be provided without supporting 
> data loading (from a file or a URL).
> Data input would be via any of
> * Collection
> * Iterable
> * Stream (Java 8)
> A redesign goal should be to make the class immutable.
> E.g. data source must be set in the constructor (rather than via a "load" 
> method); there would thus be a one-to-one correspondence between data source 
> and distribution instance.
