    //! statistics class with convergence table
    /*! This class decorates another statistics class adding a
        convergence table calculation. The table tracks the
        convergence of the mean.
 
        It is possible to specify the number of samples at which the
        mean should be stored by mean of the second template
        parameter; the default is to store \f$ 2^{n-1} \f$ samples at
        the \f$ n \f$-th step. Any passed class must implement the
        following interface:
        \code
        Size initialSamples() const;
        Size nextSamples(Size currentSamples) const;
        \endcode
        as well as a copy constructor.
 
        \test results are tested against known good values.
