On a positive note, is this what you need for your work? Do you need 
function:
     estimation_from_statistics(list<T> &statistics)
returning average and deviation? I bet one exists already, but I can add 
one to the library. What do you do next with the value you receive? Do 
you substitute it somewhere?
