I recently came across a Probability and Statistics - Explorations with Maple book by Karian and Tanis.  It mentioned something about a stats package.

It seems that most of the stats package commands are mostly incorporated into newer maple versions. 

However some commands from the stats package seem to be better.  For example

Mean([x,3,1+x])  produces an error with the Statistics package in Maple where using Mean from the Stats package of Karian and Tanis produces a result. 

I realize the package is older but what are some of your thoughts on this package?  Should I install it and check it out or would it be a waste of time to bother with such a package?
