/**
 * Computes the skewness of the available values.
 * <p>
 * We use the following (unbiased) formula to define skewness:</p>
 * <p>
 * skewness = [n / (n -1) (n - 2)] sum[(x_i - mean)^3] / std^3 </p>
 * <p>
 * where n is the number of values, mean is the {@link Mean} and std is the
 * {@link StandardDeviation} </p>
 * <p>
 * Note that this statistic is undefined for n < 3.  
 * is returned when there is not sufficient data to compute the statistic.
 * Double.NaN may also be returned if the input includes NaN and / or
 * infinite values.</p>
 * <p>
 * <strong>Note that this implementation is not synchronized. If
 * multiple threads access an instance of this class concurrently, and at least
 * one of the threads invokes the <code>increment() or
 * <code>clear() method, it must be synchronized externally.
