interval_probabilities

Assign probability mass to each interval

## Specification

Alias: interval_probs range_probabilities range_probs

Argument(s): REALLIST

Default: Equal probability assignments for each interval (1/num_intervals[i])

## Description

The basic probability assignments for each interval variable must sum to one. For example, if an interval variable is defined with three intervals, the probabilities for these intervals could be 0.2, 0.5, and 0.3 which sum to one, but could not be 0.5,0.5, and 0.5 which do not sum to one.
