statistics -- generate statistics for a sample

Synopsis

Description

Generates statistics for the sample via the given function. The function is applied to each element in the sample, and its result is then used to calculate a mean, standard deviation, and histogram.

i1 : s=sample(ER(6,3,0.2),15);
i2 : statistics(s, degree@@ideal)

o2 = HashTable{Histogram => Tally{1 => 5 }}
                                  2 => 4
                                  4 => 1
                                  5 => 3
                                  8 => 1
                                  12 => 1
                       52
               Mean => --
