Sorry - the last sentence is not correct. What I should have said is that EmpiricalDistribution should support this functionality. I had actually started implementing this, but not proposed / committed it yet. You can force this in EmpiricalDistribution now using singleton bins, but it should be supported directly there. > I will make the > necessary changes if others are OK with them.
