-----------------------------------
Thanks, Thomas! That looks like a different problem. Looking into it...
Leaving this open for now.
> getKernel fails for buckets with only multiple instances of the same value in
> random.EmpiricalDistribution

> Key: MATH-1203
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-1203
> Project: Commons Math
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.4, 3.4.1
> Reporter: Kyle Kavanagh
>
> After loading a set of values into an EmpericalDistribution, assume that
> there's a case where a single bin ONLY contains multiple instances of the
> same value. In this case the standard deviation will equal zero. This will
> fail when getKernel attempts to create a NormalDistribution. The other case
> where stddev=0 is when there is only a single value in the bin, and this is
> handled by returning a ConstantRealDistribution rather than a
> NormalDistrbution.
> See: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-984
