> This implementation uses {{commons-numbers}}
> [Sum|https://github.com/apache/commons-numbers/blob/master/commons-numbers-core/src/main/java/org/apache/commons/numbers/core/Sum.java]
> as the underlying implementation.
> This may be further expanded to include various other Sum implementations
> like [Kahan Sum|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kahan_summation_algorithm],
> {{Neumaier Sum}} (Two sum method) etc. with the option for the users to
> choose an implementation. However, before beginning the implementation of
> various other algorithms it may be worthwhile to discuss and investigate the
> relative speed of the current Sum implementation compared to
> {{DoubleStream.sum}} through JMH benchmarks.
> When we know the different speeds, it would be more clear if the user should
> have a choice for this statistic, e.g.
> * When using {{DoubleStream.sum}} is too slow and it would be nice to have a
> simple sum variation.
> * When the sum has a lot of cancellation and {{DoubleStream.sum}} suffers
> from random walk around zero.
