## @deftypefnx {} {@var{stats} =} statistics (@var{x}, @var{dim})
## @deftypefnx {} {@var{stats} =} statistics (@var{x}, @var{vecdim})
## @deftypefnx {} {@var{stats} =} statistics (@var{x}, "all")
## @deftypefnx {} {@var{stats} =} statistics (@dots{}, @var{nanflag})
## Return a vector with statistics parameters over the input data @var{x}.
##
## @code{statistics (@var{x}} operates along the first non-singleton dimension
## of @var{x} and calculates the following statistical parameters:
## @enumerate
## @item minimum
## @item first quartile
## @item median
## @item third quartile
## @item maximum
## @item mean
## @item standard deviation
## @item skewness
## @item kurtosis
## @end enumerate
##
## If @var{x} is a row vector, then @code{statistics (@var{x})} returns a row
## vector with the aforementioned statistical parameters.  If @var{x} is a
## column vector, then it returns a column vector.
##
## If @var{x} is a matrix, then @code{statistics (@var{x})} returns a matrix
## such that each column contains the statistical parameters calculated over
## the corresponding column of @var{x}.
##
## If @var{x} is an array, then @code{statistics (@var{x})} computes the
## statistical parameters along the first non-singleton dimension of @var{x}.
##
## The data in @var{x} must be numeric and by default any NaN values are
## ignored from the computations of statistical parameters except for the
## mean and the standard deviation.  Set the optional argument @var{nanflag}
## to @qcode{"omitnan"} to exclude the NaN values from the calculation of
## the mean and standard deviation parameters.  Setting @var{nanflag} to
## @qcode{"includenan"} is ignored and it is equivalent to calling the
## @code{statistics} function without the @var{nanflag} argument.
##
## The size of @var{stats} is equal to the size of @var{x} except for the
## operating dimension, which equals to 9 (i.e., the number of statistical
## parameters returned).
##
## The optional input @var{dim} specifies the dimension to operate on and must
## be a positive integer.  Specifying any singleton dimension of @var{x},
## including any dimension exceeding @code{ndims (@var{x})}, will return
## @code{@var{x}}.
##
## Specifying multiple dimensions with input @var{vecdim}, a vector of
## non-repeating dimensions, will operate along the array slice defined by
## @var{vecdim}.  If @var{vecdim} indexes all dimensions of @var{x}, then it is
## equivalent to the option @qcode{"all"}.  Any dimension in @var{vecdim}
## greater than @code{ndims (@var{x})} is ignored.
##
## Specifying the dimension as @qcode{"all"} will cause @code{statistics} to
## operate on all elements of @var{x}, and is equivalent to
## @code{statistics (@var{x}(:))}.
