27 /**
28  * Computes the Kurtosis of the available values.
29  * <p>
30  * We use the following (unbiased) formula to define kurtosis:</p>
31  *  <p>
32  *  kurtosis = { [n(n+1) / (n -1)(n - 2)(n-3)] sum[(x_i - mean)^4] / std^4 } - [3(n-1)^2 / (n-2)(n-3)]
33  *  </p><p>
34  *  where n is the number of values, mean is the {@link Mean} and std is the
35  * {@link StandardDeviation}</p>
36  * <p>
37  *  Note that this statistic is undefined for n < 4.  <code>Double.Nan</code>
38  *  is returned when there is not sufficient data to compute the statistic.</p>
39  * <p>
40  * <strong>Note that this implementation is not synchronized.</strong> If
41  * multiple threads access an instance of this class concurrently, and at least
42  * one of the threads invokes the <code>increment()</code> or
43  * <code>clear()</code> method, it must be synchronized externally.</p>
