Line 34:
Mathematically, this is known as the (generalised) [[problem of moments]]: for a given class of random variables ''X'', find a collection {''f<sub>i</sub>''} of functions such that the expectation values E[''f<sub>i</sub>''(''X'')] fully characterize the distribution of the random variable ''X''.
