A state object for collecting statistics such as count, min, max, sum, and average.

This class is designed to work with (though does not require) streams. For example, you can compute summary statistics on a stream of ints with:

 
 IntSummaryStatistics stats = intStream.collect(IntSummaryStatistics::new,
                                                IntSummaryStatistics::accept,
                                                IntSummaryStatistics::combine);
 

IntSummaryStatistics can be used as a reduction target for a stream. For example:

 
 IntSummaryStatistics stats = people.stream()
                                    .collect(Collectors.summarizingInt(Person::getDependents));

This computes, in a single pass, the count of people, as well as the minimum, maximum, sum, and average of their number of dependents.
