It's weird that one can't easily find any links to their github page from the site. Here it is: https://github.com/jstat/jstat https://github.com/jstat/jstat

It's weird that one can't easily find any links to their github page from the site. Here it is: https://github.com/jstat/jstat https://github.com/jstat/jstat I almost thought they weren't on GitHub.

Thank you for posting the link to the Github page...additionally for those interested, the library is by John Resig. Put it in the title earlier, got moderated out. The library is also funded by the European Community's Seventh Framework Programme (http://cordis.europa.eu/fp7/home_en.html http://cordis.europa.eu/fp7/home_en.html).

  I didn't edit the title, but I also don't see anywhere that this is by John Resig. See https://raw.github.com/jstat/jstat/master/AUTHORS https://raw.github.com/jstat/jstat/master/AUTHORS The authors merely use some code that he published on his blog a while back at http://ejohn.org/blog/simple-javascript-inheritance/ http://ejohn.org/blog/simple-javascript-inheritance/ and that's why they cite his name in the code file.

The GitHub version and the version on the jstat website are vastly different. Just thought I'd point that out. I like the way that the GitHub version is laid out in a modular format. Some of the functionality is different so you can't just switch from the old library to the GitHub version and expect all the code to work.

  You're absolutely correct. If you look at the commit history, you'll see that it started out as two different projects. We noticed we had the same goals and decided to combine projects. I've been in charge of architecting the API since then. One of my goals was to make it very modular and easily extendable. In the overview page of the documentation I explain how this was accomplished (http://jstat.github.com/overview.html http://jstat.github.com/overview.html)
