    """Return array of samples from dist with given params.

    Draw samples of random variables from a specified distribution, dist, with
    given parameters, params, return these in an array.

    Parameters
    ----------
    dist: Scipy.stats distribution object
        Distribution with a .rvs method

    params: dict
        Parameters to define the distribution dist.
                e.g. if dist = scipy.stats.binom then params could be:
                {'n': 100, 'p': 0.25}

    size: int, optional (default=200)
        The number of random variables to draw.

    Returns
    -------
    Numpy array: Sample of random variables
