Namespace should match the gem name

[estebanz01]

Per this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/ruby/comments/76vse9/rubystatistics_a_gem_for_statistical_methods_and/

It's important to have a match between the gem name and the global namespace defined. I tried to move it, but It broke all my specs and the paths didn't load as desired.

Related to this issue, in the readme, the gem that we install is called ruby-statistics, but the readme says under "Basic Usage":

just require the statistics gem in order to load it

What is the statistics gem?

Hola @pboling ! that's not a gem, but the name of a namespace defined here: https://github.com/estebanz01/ruby-statistics/blob/master/lib/statistics.rb

This issue is specifically to address the mismatch: ruby-statistics gem should use a namespace of RubyStatistics instead of Statistics.

the readme and the examples in the wiki, is telling you that if you require 'statistics', then you can use the gem as expected.

Hope it helps!

Right, I mentioned it because the README says it is a gem, but it isn't. Very confusing.

I figured out that it should be added like this to a project using a Gemfile:

gem 'ruby-statistics`, require: 'statistics'

That's probably what the readme should say.

[estebanz01]

well, that requires the gem in the entire project, sometimes you don't want that, you might want to use only the distributions or only an specific class.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll try to come up with better wording for the README.
