   The original authors of the concepts behind this sketch are Zohar Karnin & 
Edo Liberty (see above), In addition, Edo wrote the original Python code 
[gde.py](https://github.com/edoliberty/streaming-quantiles/blob/f688c8161a25582457b0a09deb4630a81406293b/gde.py)
 that was our inspiration for our C++ code as well as our python code that 
calls it.  
   
   In Edo's streaming-quantiles directory that contains gde.py, you can also 
find a very useful gde_example_usage.ipynb Jupyter Notebook with nice comments 
and graphs that illustrate the use of this sketch.  There is also a gde_test.py 
that illustrates some useful tests. So I think documentation is out there, it 
just is not easy to find from our library.  We need to fix this before we go 
much further with this sketch, e.g. it is not even mentioned on our website.  
(This should have been addressed before we released it with C++ and Python!)
   
   P.S. Edo has been a strong supporter of our DataSketches project, has guided 
us in a number of theoretical areas, and is on our PMC.
