-This module provides basic functions used in descriptive statistics. It

-with Statistics::Descriptive) with one major difference. This module is
-optimized for discretized data e.g. data from an A/D conversion that has a
-discrete set of possible values. E.g. if your data is produced by an 8 bit
-A/D then you'd have only 256 possible values in your data set. Even though
-you might have a million data points, you'd only have 256 different values
-in those million points. Instead of storing the entire data set as
