>
> DrillAvgVarianceConvertlet currently rewrites aggregate functions like avg,
> stddev, variance to simple computations.
> Eg:
> Stddev( x ) => power(
> (sum(x * x) - sum( x ) * sum( x ) / count( x ))
> / count( x ),
> .5)
> Consider the case when the input is an integer. Now the rewrite contains
> multiplication and division, which will bind to functions that operate on
> integers however the expected result should be a double and since double has
> more precision than integer we should be operating on double during the
> multiplication and division.
