[issue21046] Document formulas used in statistics

[Steven D'Aprano]

Steven D'Aprano added the comment:

If any of the docs are unclear, I would be very happy take suggestions to improve them. But I'm not entirely sure that the docs are the right place to show the equations. You should be able to look them up on Wikipedia or Wolfram Mathworld if you have doubt about them. Some of the functions, like mode() and the median functions, don't have equations.

I am willing to include equations where appropriate, if others think that the documentation will be enhanced by them. But so far, I am unconvinced of the need.
