Hello,

I'm writing an evolutionary algorithm in which each individual contains StandardDeviations and Means. From time to time I need a deep copy / clone of an individual. Thus far I've actually had to keep a list of all data and, when cloning, generate a new statistic and increment it with all that data. Now that I'm moving to production level, turns out I'm running out of memory (no huge surprise). I'm going to extend Mean, Variance, StandardDeviation, FirstMoment, and SecondMoment for my application to provide a copy constructor (which, according to Item 10, page 51 of Bloch's effective java, beats out clone, and I buy that) for each. Anyway, I think that addition would be easy and general enough to introduce into the trunk. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Jason
