Gilles Sadowski commented on STATISTICS-54:
-------------------------------------------

Given that the [JDK provides utilities for "basic" 
usage|https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/DoubleSummaryStatistics.html],
 shouldn't we center the design around all the other statistics (sum of 
squares, variance, standard deviation, ...)?
Since many of the computations depends on results for others, the focus might 
be on the like of a stream version of 
[{{SummaryStatistics}}|https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-math/javadocs/api-4.0-beta1/org/apache/commons/math4/legacy/stat/descriptive/SummaryStatistics.html]
 rather than a separate stream version for each of the statistics (because in 
the "advanced" usage, that approach will entail many redundant computations).
