  61. Since 2010, most functions for descriptive statistics can be used in Matlab style matrix computations. As a last argument, add the dimension along which you want to average. This changes the behavior slightly from previous relaeses, in that input is not reshaped anymore into vector format. Per default, all computations are performed columnwise (along dimension 1). If you prefer to use the old functions, for now they are contained in the subdirectory 'old'.

  70. The implementation follows in most cases 'Biostatistical Analysis' and all referenced equations and tables are taken from this book, if not otherwise noted. In some cases, the other books were preferred for implementation was more straightforward for solutions presented there.
