Oh, I should have asked whether you can also look at the source code in the
trunk: Currently the "compute(UnivariateStatistic)" method is only
implemented internally (in a private inner class of "DescriptiveStatistics").
If you want this feature to be in the public API, could you create a new issue
on JIRA? [Then we can see in which package this class should go.]

I'm afraid I don't follow you; I don't see the connection between missing
values and the resizeable array. Maybe a small code example would help me.
