raw2central {moments} | R Documentation |
Raw to central moments
Description
This function transforms a vector, matrix or data frame of raw moments to a vector, matrix or data frame of central moments.
Usage
raw2central(mu.raw)
Arguments
mu.raw |
A numeric vector, matrix or data frame of raw moments. For a vector, mu.raw[0] is the order 0 raw moment, mu.raw[1] is the order 1 raw moment and so forth. For a matrix or data frame, row vector mu.raw[0,] contains the order 0 raw moments, row vector mu.raw[1,] contains the order 1 raw moments and so forth. |
Value
A vector matrix or data frame of central moments. For matrices and data frame, column vectors correspond to different random variables.
