/**
@brief Skewness estimation
The skewness of a sample distribution is defined as the ratio of the 3rd central moment and the \f$ 3/2 \f$-th power
of the 2nd central moment (the variance) of the sampless 3. The skewness can also be expressed by the simple moments:
\f[
\hat{g}_1 =
\frac
{\widehat{m}_n^{(3)}-3\widehat{m}_n^{(2)}\hat{\mu}_n+2\hat{\mu}_n^3}
{\left(\widehat{m}_n^{(2)} - \hat{\mu}_n^{2}\right)^{3/2}}
\f]
where \f$ \widehat{m}_n^{(i)} \f$ are the \f$ i \f$-th moment and \f$ \hat{\mu}_n \f$ the mean (first moment) of the
\f$ n \f$ samples.
