    public static double[] normalizeArray(double[] values,
                          double normalizedSum)
                                   throws MathIllegalArgumentException,
                                          MathArithmeticException

Normalizes an array to make it sum to a specified value. Returns the result of the transformation

        x |-> x * normalizedSum / sum

applied to each non-NaN element x of the input array, where sum is the sum of the non-NaN entries in the input array.

Throws IllegalArgumentException if `normalizedSum` is infinite or NaN and ArithmeticException if the input array contains any infinite elements or sums to 0.

Ignores (i.e., copies unchanged to the output array) NaNs in the input array.

Parameters:
  `values` - Input array to be normalized
  `normalizedSum` - Target sum for the normalized array
Returns:
  the normalized array.
Throws:
  `MathArithmeticException` - if the input array contains infinite elements or sums to zero.
  `MathIllegalArgumentException` - if the target sum is infinite or `NaN`.
