    • getSampleVariance

      public double getSampleVariance()
      Returns the current (unbiased) sample variance of all observations since the initialization. The calculation of the sample variance in relation to the population variance is undisputed. The formula is:
        S2 = (1 / (n - 1)) * [ Σx2 - (Σx)2 / n ]
      which can be calculated on the basis of the calculated population variance σ2 as follows:
        S2 = σ2 * n / (n - 1)
      Returns:
      double; the current sample variance of this tally

    • getPopulationVariance

      public double getPopulationVariance()
      Returns the current (biased) population variance of all observations since the initialization. The population variance is defined as:
      σ2 = (1 / n) * [ Σx2 - (Σx)2 / n ]
      Returns:
      double; the current population variance of this tally

    • getSampleSkewness

      public double getSampleSkewness()
      Return the (unbiased) sample skewness of the registered data. There are different formulas to calculate the unbiased (sample) skewness from the biased (population) skewness. Minitab, for instance calculates unbiased skewness as:
        Skewunbiased = Skewbiased [ ( n - 1) / n ] 3/2
      whereas SAS, SPSS and Excel calculate it as:
        Skewunbiased = Skewbiased √[ n ( n - 1)] / (n - 2)
      Here we follow the last mentioned formula. All formulas converge to the same value with larger n.
      Returns:
      double; the sample skewness of the registered data

    • getPopulationSkewness

      public double getPopulationSkewness()
      Return the (biased) population skewness of the registered data. The population skewness is defined as:
        Skewbiased = [ Σ ( x - μ ) 3 ] / [ n . S3 ]
      where S2 is the sample variance. So the denominator is equal to [ n . sample_var3/2 ] .
      Returns:
      double; the skewness of the registered data

    • getSampleKurtosis

      public double getSampleKurtosis()
      Return the sample kurtosis of the registered data. The sample kurtosis can be defined in multiple ways. Here, we choose the following formula:
        Kurtunbiased = [ Σ ( x - μ ) 4 ] / [ ( n - 1 ) . S4 ]
      where S2 is the sample variance. So the denominator is equal to [ ( n - 1 ) . sample_var2 ] .
      Returns:
      double; the sample kurtosis of the registered data

    • getPopulationKurtosis

      public double getPopulationKurtosis()
      Return the (biased) population kurtosis of the registered data. The population kurtosis is defined as:
        Kurtbiased = [ Σ ( x - μ ) 4 ] / [ n . σ4 ]
      where σ2 is the population variance. So the denominator is equal to [ n . pop_var2 ] .
      Returns:
      double; the population kurtosis of the registered data

    • getSampleExcessKurtosis

      public double getSampleExcessKurtosis()
      Return the sample excess kurtosis of the registered data. The sample excess kurtosis is the sample-corrected value of the excess kurtosis. Several formulas exist to calculate the sample excess kurtosis from the population kurtosis. Here we use:
        ExcessKurtunbiased = ( n - 1 ) / [( n - 2 ) * ( n - 3 )] [ ( n + 1 ) * ExcessKurtbiased + 6]
      This is the excess kurtosis that is calculated by, for instance, SAS, SPSS and Excel.
      Returns:
      double; the sample excess kurtosis of the registered data

    • getPopulationExcessKurtosis

      public double getPopulationExcessKurtosis()
      Return the population excess kurtosis of the registered data. The kurtosis value of the normal distribution is 3. The excess kurtosis is the kurtosis value shifted by -3 to be 0 for the normal distribution.
      Returns:
      double; the population excess kurtosis of the registered data

      IllegalArgumentException - when quantile is NaN

      public double[] getConfidenceInterval(double alpha)
      returns the confidence interval on either side of the mean.
      Parameters:
      alpha - double; Alpha is the significance level used to compute the confidence level. The confidence level equals 100*(1 - alpha)%, or in other words, an alpha of 0.05 indicates a 95 percent confidence level.

      double[]; the confidence interval of this tally
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - when alpha is less than 0 or larger than 1

      returns the confidence interval based of the mean.
      Parameters:
