Another of these distribution like pairs is:
{(1-t^7)/(1+t^7),2^1/6*t*(7+35*t^14+21*t^28+t^42)^1/7/(1+t^7)}
When fitted in the previous area programs,
my computer doesn't compute the area of the normalization factor.
n=6, 8 are again a squared circles.
It appears that these can be done for general n case
and the odd ones give the distributioin like parametric.
