// .NAME vtkPDescriptiveStatistics - A class for parallel univariate descriptive statistics
// .SECTION Description
// vtkPDescriptiveStatistics is vtkDescriptiveStatistics subclass for parallel datasets.
// It learns and derives the global statistical model on each node, but assesses each 
// individual data points on the node that owns it.

// .SECTION Thanks
// Thanks to Philippe Pebay from Sandia National Laboratories for implementing this class.
