> Currently, the "GaussianFitter" class contains a "CurveFitter" instance (and 
> delegates most method calls to it) for the sake of being able to return a 
> "GaussianFunction" instance (from the call to the "fit" method).
> I think that it would clearer (in the context of the "fitting" package) that 
> "fit" returns an array of doubles (as "CurveFitter" does). The user can then 
> easily create a "Gaussian" function object, if needed.
> [Also, note that the "GaussianFitter" actually fits the sum of a constant and 
> a Gaussian function; thus the name is slightly misleading IMO.]
> I also think that "ParametricGaussianFunction" and 
> "GaussianParametersGuesser" should become inner classes of "GaussianFitter" 
> (as this makes it clear what their use is).
