This commit contains the suite of random data generation utilities that
I originally
proposed as extensions to lang.math. There is some functional overlap
with lang.math, but the contract and intention of this implementation is
different in several significant ways.
* the lang implementation maintains "immutability" of the underlying
random number generator (emulating Math). The RandomData
implementation allows users to reseed the random number generator(s)
(this is in effect possible in the recent extensions to lang.math by
passing in a user-supplied random as an actual parameter to the
next() methods) Users can also reset the PRNG algorithm and provider
used by the "secure" methods.
* RandomData includes "secure" methods (delegating to SecureRandom)
* RandomData will generate random deviates from exponential and poisson,
as well as Gaussian and Uniform distributions. These are useful in
simulation applications.
* Overlapping somewhat with lang.StringUtils, RandomData will generate
random hex strings. There is a nextSecureHexString method that will
(I claim :-) generate cryptographically secure string identifiers. I
would appreciate feedback on this algorithm, which I have seen used
elsewhere (similar to what tomcat does to generate session ids); but
not documented as a standard.

addition to a constant which signifies an "infinite" window. Windowing
has been added to all three Univariate implementations:
* UnivariateImpl - If the window is not infinite, we keep track of
0..n elements and discount the contribution of the discarded element when
our "window" is moved. If the window is infinite no extra storage is used
beyond an empty ContractableDoubleArray.
- In the following two implementations, the window size can be changed at anytime.
* ListStoreUnivariateImpl - If the window is not infinite, this
implementation only takes into account the last n elements of the List.
* StoreUnivariateImpl - Uses an internal ContractableDoubleArray, window size
can be changed at any time.

ExpandableDoubleArray. The interface provides a public interface
which does not hint at any of the storage parameters of
Expandable or Contractable.
* DoubleArrayTest now operates on the DoubleArray interface, casting
to Expandable when we need to call the package scopes getInternalLength
method.
* While we should not provide access to the internal storage array, it
should be possible to obtain a double[] of elements stored in this
DoubleArray - double[] getElements() was added to the DoubleArray interface,
it will return the element array.

need for a DoubleArray interface.
* ExpandableDoubleArray and the extension ContractableDoubleArray should
aim towards presenting a public interface that does not expose any
details of the internal. To this end, one is no longer able to get the
internal storage array via public double[] getValues(), and the startIndex
(which was relative to the internal storage array) is no longer available.
* [Expandable|Contractable]DoubleArray now allow one to discard
elements from the front of the array. Before this commit, one could
accomplish the same goal by changing the starting index of the element
array within the internal storage array. This solution allowed one to
discard elements from the front of the array (as well as) reclaiming
elements by decreases the startIndex.
There were two problems with this approach (especially in
ContractableDoubleArray). The ContractableDoubleArray can be
"compacted" at anytime thereby reseting the startIndex to zero and the
size of the internal store array to number of elements plus one. Second,
"reclaiming" elements from the internal storage array by finagling
internal "pointers" to the start and end index seems to violate the
principles of encapsulation. If you "discard" an element from the
front of the array, consider it unavailable.
It should be noted that calling setNumElements allows one to move the end
index of the internal element array at will. Assume one has a 100 element
array, and one calls setNumElements(10), thereby decreasing the ending index
of the element array by 90. The 90 "dumped" elements are not currently
reinitializied to the default double primitive value. This is an open
question.
* Tests for ExpandableDoubleArray and ContractableDoubleArray were
refactored. both test classes now extend a DoubleArrayAbstractTest
JUnit class which contained shared unit tests for both "implementations".
An approach like this should be adopted to test the Univariate implementations.

* This class now supports
the ability to move the starting index of the internal element array. This
allows one to move the beginning of the element array, and form a sort of
"window", this will come into play when we want to provide moving
averages, or "rolling".
* Added an addElementRolling(double v) - this will increment the startIndex
and add the element to the end of the internal element array
* brought the Clover test cases up to 100% for this class
Added a class ContractableDoubleArray:
* This is an extension of ExpandableDoubleArray - it addes a configuration
parameter contractionCriteria. Essential if the contractionCriteria is
2.0f we commit to never having the internal storage array provide more
than 2.0 times the storage capacity needed. Once the internal
storage array exceed this measurement, the internal storage array is
pruned to the size of the internal element array.
Also, my IDE scolded me for some ununsed imports in ListUnivariateImpl, they
have been removed.

into an AbstractStoreUnivariate class which take responsibility for
all statistical calculations. AbstractStoreUnivariate is implemented by
two classes:
* StoreUnivariateImpl - This class uses a ExpandableDoubleArray for
internal storage. This class is a more efficient class in terms
of storage and cycles for users who are interested in gathering statistics
not available in the UnivariateImpl implementation.
* ListUnivariateImpl - This class is for a situation where a user might
wish to maintain a List of numeric objects outside of a StoreUnivariate
instance. We still need to add serious error checking in the absence of
1.5's generics, but this implementation will work with any list that
contains Number objects - (BigDecimal, BigInteger, Byte, Double, Float,
Integer, Long, Short). This implementation ultimately transforms all
numeric objects into double primitives via Number.doubleValue().
Becuase AbstractStoreUnivariate does not hold on to any state, a user
can add values through the Univariate.addValue() function OR one can
directly manipulate the contents of the List directly.

interface of Univariate was extracted in an interface of the same name.
Univariate, an interface, is now implemented by UnivariateImpl which contains
all code originally present in the original Univariate implementation.
* StoredUnivariate is an interface which extends Univariate and adds
measures not available in the superinterface such as mode, kurtosis, and skew
* StoredUnivariateImpl provides an implementation which uses the
ExpandableDoubleArray for internal storage. Calculations are performed
on demand *each* time a particular measure is required no state is
maintained by this implementation.
* Univariate provided methods addValue(int), addValue(float), addValue(long).
There functions were removed as no cast is required - all of these
assignments are widening conversions - no cast required
* Removed the name property from Univariate - property not relevant to
univariate statistics

3. Add solve() method to RealMatrix interface, representing vector
solution to AX = B, where B is the parameter and A is *this.
