>>> import openturns as ot
>>> ot.RandomGenerator.SetSeed(0)
>>> distribution = ot.Normal()
>>> sample = distribution.getSample(30)
>>> tested_distributions = [ot.ExponentialFactory(), ot.NormalFactory()]
>>> best_model, best_aic = ot.FittingTest.BestModelAIC(sample, tested_distributions)
>>> print(best_model)
