     * Examples, please?  This item goes to the heart of what I consider an ongoing lack of consensus about what Commons-Math is supposed to be for.  Should it include discipline-specific algorithms that do not overlap core numerical mathematical areas?  Maybe, but we should discuss it. -- AlChou
   * Numerical Enhancements

-  * Replace some of the discrete pmf and pdf methods with methods based on Catherine Loader's alogorithms [http://www.herine.net/stat/papers/dbinom.pdf].  These algorithms address some of the problems we experienced with large parameter values and have been adopted by many software packages including R.
