    Notes
    -----

    infinity is treated as a very small (i.e. negative) number.

    Notes
    -----
    If both positive and negative infinity are present, the sum will be Not
    A Number (NaN).

    Numpy integer arithmetic is modular. If the size of a sum exceeds the
    size of an integer accumulator, its value will wrap around and the
    result will be incorrect. Specifying ``dtype=double`` can alleviate
    that problem.

    Notes
    -----
    The arithmetic mean is the sum of the non-NaN elements along the axis
    divided by the number of non-NaN elements.

    Note that for floating-point input, the mean is computed using the same
    precision the input has.  Depending on the input data, this can cause
    the results to be inaccurate, especially for `float32`.  Specifying a
    higher-precision accumulator using the `dtype` keyword can alleviate
    this issue.

    .. versionadded:: 1.9.0

    Parameters
    ----------
    a : array_like
        Input array or object that can be converted to an array.
    axis : int, optional
        Axis along which the medians are computed. The default (axis=None)
        is to compute the median along a flattened version of the array.
        A sequence of axes is supported since version 1.9.0.
    out : ndarray, optional
        Alternative output array in which to place the result. It must have
        the same shape and buffer length as the expected output, but the
        type (of the output) will be cast if necessary.
    overwrite_input : bool, optional
       If True, then allow use of memory of input array (a) for
       calculations. The input array will be modified by the call to
       median. This will save memory when you do not need to preserve
       the contents of the input array. Treat the input as undefined,
       but it will probably be fully or partially sorted. Default is
       False. Note that, if `overwrite_input` is True and the input
       is not already an ndarray, an error will be raised.
    keepdims : bool, optional
        If this is set to True, the axes which are reduced are left
        in the result as dimensions with size one. With this option,
        the result will broadcast correctly against the original `arr`.



    Returns
    -------
    median : ndarray
        A new array holding the result. If the input contains integers, or
        floats of smaller precision than 64, then the output data-type is
        float64.  Otherwise, the output data-type is the same as that of the
        input.

    Notes
    -----
    Given a vector V of length N, the median of V is the middle value of
    a sorted copy of V, ``V_sorted`` - i.e., ``V_sorted[(N-1)/2]``, when N is
    odd.  When N is even, it is the average of the two middle values of
    ``V_sorted``.

    Parameters
    ----------
    a : array_like
        Input array or object that can be converted to an array.
    q : float in range of [0,100] (or sequence of floats)
        Percentile to compute which must be between 0 and 100 inclusive.
    axis : int or sequence of int, optional

        A sequence of axes is supported since version 1.9.0.

        percentile. This will save memory when you do not need to preserve

        any assumptions about the content of the passed in array `a` after
        this function completes -- treat it as undefined. Default is False.
        Note that, if the `a` input is not already an array this parameter
        will have no effect, `a` will be converted to an array internally
        regardless of the value of this parameter.
    interpolation : {'linear', 'lower', 'higher', 'midpoint', 'nearest'}
        This optional parameter specifies the interpolation method to use,
        when the desired quantile lies between two data points `i` and `j`:
            * linear: `i + (j - i) * fraction`, where `fraction` is the
              fractional part of the index surrounded by `i` and `j`.
            * lower: `i`.
            * higher: `j`.
            * nearest: `i` or `j` whichever is nearest.
            * midpoint: (`i` + `j`) / 2.

    keepdims : bool, optional
        If this is set to True, the axes which are reduced are left
        in the result as dimensions with size one. With this option,
        the result will broadcast correctly against the original `arr`.


    Returns
    -------
    nanpercentile : scalar or ndarray
        If a single percentile `q` is given and axis=None a scalar is
        returned.  If multiple percentiles `q` are given an array holding
        the result is returned. The results are listed in the first axis.
        (If `out` is specified, in which case that array is returned
        instead).  If the input contains integers, or floats of smaller
        precision than 64, then the output data-type is float64. Otherwise,
        the output data-type is the same as that of the input.

    Notes
    -----
    Given a vector V of length N, the q-th percentile of V is the q-th ranked
    value in a sorted copy of V.  The values and distances of the two
    nearest neighbors as well as the `interpolation` parameter will
    determine the percentile if the normalized ranking does not match q
    exactly. This function is the same as the median if ``q=50``, the same
    as the minimum if ``q=0``and the same as the maximum if ``q=100``.

    Notes
    -----
    The variance is the average of the squared deviations from the mean,
    i.e.,  ``var = mean(abs(x - x.mean())**2)``.

    The mean is normally calculated as ``x.sum() / N``, where ``N = len(x)``.
    If, however, `ddof` is specified, the divisor ``N - ddof`` is used
    instead.  In standard statistical practice, ``ddof=1`` provides an
    unbiased estimator of the variance of a hypothetical infinite
    population.  ``ddof=0`` provides a maximum likelihood estimate of the
    variance for normally distributed variables.

    Note that for complex numbers, the absolute value is taken before
    squaring, so that the result is always real and nonnegative.

    For floating-point input, the variance is computed using the same
    precision the input has.  Depending on the input data, this can cause
    the results to be inaccurate, especially for `float32` (see example
    below).  Specifying a higher-accuracy accumulator using the ``dtype``

    -----
    The standard deviation is the square root of the average of the squared
    deviations from the mean: ``std = sqrt(mean(abs(x - x.mean())**2))``.

    The average squared deviation is normally calculated as
    ``x.sum() / N``, where ``N = len(x)``.  If, however, `ddof` is
    specified, the divisor ``N - ddof`` is used instead. In standard
    statistical practice, ``ddof=1`` provides an unbiased estimator of the
    variance of the infinite population. ``ddof=0`` provides a maximum
    likelihood estimate of the variance for normally distributed variables.
    The standard deviation computed in this function is the square root of
    the estimated variance, so even with ``ddof=1``, it will not be an
    unbiased estimate of the standard deviation per se.

    Note that, for complex numbers, `std` takes the absolute value before
    squaring, so that the result is always real and nonnegative.

    For floating-point input, the *std* is computed using the same
