Too much renaming and reorganization. I didn't mean to complain too loudly, and if the result is to use abbreviations, I retract my comments. I probably should have given more than half a second's thought to what alternative names might be shorter, but in the absence of well-thought-out shorter names, I much prefer the current proposal of DescriptiveStatistics. Never use abbreviations unless everyone already knows them (e.g., sin for sine), I say. Al __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Protect your identity with Yahoo!
