(was: Thanks for the answer.I make a mistake that I think the parameter passed 
in is the original random variable values like `kolmogorovSmirnovTest`, 
actually it should be frequencies. )

> ChiSqTest for goodness of fit doesn't test against a wrong uniform

> I've been running a ChiSqTest to test whether my samples fit a uniform 
> distribution.
> The documentation says that If a second vector to test against is not 
> supplied as a parameter, the test runs against a uniform distribution. But 
> when I pass samples drawn from a normal distribution, the p-value calculated 
> is 1.0, which is wrong.
> The problem is that in ChiSqTest.scala, the `chiSquared` function will 
> generate a wrong uniform distribution if the expected vector is not supplied.
> The default generated samples should be 
> val expArr = if (expected.size == 0) Array.tabulate(size)(i => i.toDouble / 
> size) else expected.toArray
