final class StatVector extends AnyVal

The StatVector value class provides methods for computing statistics on data vectors. Both maximum likelihood and unbiased estimators are supported. Unbiased should only be used on sample (not population) data. Ex: It can be used to support the Method of Independent Replications (MIR). For efficiency, StatVector is a value class that enriches the VectorD. The corresponding implicit conversion in the stat package object.
