_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     It obtains the value of the kurtosis for a normally distributed
     variable. The result is similar to SAS.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     kurtosis(x)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

       x: a numeric vector 

_V_a_l_u_e:

      x : The kurtosis of x 

_S_e_e _A_l_s_o:

     'skewness '
