<p dir="auto">It looks like the scipy.stats module needs some updating. First, there are now some duplicate with numpy functionality. Also, the API do not match between numpy and scipy. Eg :</p>
<div class="snippet-clipboard-content notranslate position-relative overflow-auto" data-snippet-clipboard-copy-content="#!python
from numpy.random import randn
from scipy.stats import mean
a = randn(10, 10)
print a.mean()
print mean(a)"><pre class="notranslate"><code class="notranslate">#!python
from numpy.random import randn
from scipy.stats import mean
a = randn(10, 10)
print a.mean()
print mean(a)
</code></pre></div>
<p dir="auto">What is the feeling of other people on changing the module so that numpy and scipy behaviour match for all moments related function (mean, variance, kurtosis, etc...) ?</p>
