mrpy.base.stats.TGGD.central_moments

TGGD.central_moments(n)

Calculate the nth central moment, E[(X-mu)^n].

Parameters:

n : integer

The order of the moment desired.

Returns:

mu_n : float

The nth central moment.

Notes

The 2nd central moment is equivalent to the variance.

Examples

>>> from mrpy.base.stats import TGGD
>>> t = TGGD()
>>> variance = t.central_moments(2)
>>> t.raw_moments(10)
