stats module

Open jtniehof opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

I think it's probably time to do what we've talked about for a long time, and move a bunch of functionality to a stats module. I'll edit this as discussion proceeds. (I don't even have all the functions explicitly listed here.)

I don't think this is a 0.2.2 discussion, maybe 0.3.0?

Up for discussion

  • bootstrapping code in PoPPY: suggest go to stats if possible (the general boots_ci, not association analysis CI).
  • histogram-related code: ??? Mostly it's in toolbox. Could see a case both ways
  • specific statistical tests or aggregate metrics from a sample: go to stats
  • drawing from or defining a particular distribution: maybe go to stats?

Go to stats

Leave where it is

I am a fan of Go to Stats for most of these things. Finding things between toolbox and stats is hard for a user.
