            REQUIREMENTS ON T
                - T must be a float, double, or long double type

            INITIAL VALUE
                - max_n() == std::numeric_limits<T>::max()

                - current_n() == 0

            WHAT THIS OBJECT REPRESENTS
                This object represents something that can compute the running mean and
                variance of a stream of real numbers.  

                As this object accumulates more and more numbers it will be the case
                that each new number impacts the current mean and variance estimate
                less and less.  This may be what you want.  But it might not be. 

                For example, your stream of numbers might be non-stationary, that is,
                the mean and variance might change over time.  To enable you to use
                this object on such a stream of numbers this object provides the 
                ability to set a "max_n."  The meaning of the max_n() parameter
                is that after max_n() samples have been seen each new sample will
                have the same impact on the mean and variance estimates from then on.

                So if you have a highly non-stationary stream of data you might
                set the max_n to a small value while if you have a very stationary
                stream you might set it to a very large value.
