Standardize Frequency Distribution and Probability Mass functions and operators #89

Open JonathanHoffman opened 9 years ago

JonathanHoffman commented 9 years ago

When we started making ProbabilityMass and FrequencyDistribution, we knew what we needed them to do mathematically, but we could have chosen better names for their operations. We should go back and find standard names in these types so that anyone with a statistics or probability background can understand what they do just by looking at them.
