#' Kurtosis of the sample

#' @description Kurtosis is a measure of the "tailedness" of the probability distribution of a real-valued random variable.
#'
#' @param x a vector of values, a \code{matrix} or a \code{data frame}
#' @param na.rm a logical value indicating whether \code{NA} values should be stripped before the computation proceeds.
