Suppose you collect a large quantity of numbers, randomly distributed 
over the interval 0..k.

Assuming these numbers are truly random, and the distribution is truly 
uniform, presumably the arithmetic mean should be k/2.

Can anybody tell me what the value of some other statistics should 
hypothetically be? (Geometric mean, harmonic mean, quadratic mean, 
standard deviation...)
