Radial distribution function for an ideal gas

This week we will compute the radial distribution function for an ideal gas, which will get us ready to do it for a real system next time

First we have to generate a "configuration" of an ideal gas. We'll do it in 2D. Fortunately, this is easy because it just means the x and y for each particle are random between 0 and L.
