@tdunning Thank you for the thoughtful response. I now understand that whether to allow infinities really depends on what semantics we want the empirical distribution to have. In my use case, I was mainly trying to protect the t-digest from values that come from numeric overflow or underflow, not from intentional ±∞ in the data. Your explanation helped clarify the distinction for me. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
