Estimates the mean of the underlying population.
Namespace:
Meta.Numerics.Statistics
Assembly:
Meta.Numerics (in Meta.Numerics.dll) Version: 4.1.4
Syntaxpublic static UncertainValue PopulationMean(
this IReadOnlyCollection<double> sample
)
<ExtensionAttribute>
Public Shared Function PopulationMean (
sample As IReadOnlyCollection(Of Double)
) As UncertainValue
public:
[ExtensionAttribute]
static UncertainValue PopulationMean(
IReadOnlyCollection<double>^ sample
)
[<ExtensionAttribute>]
static member PopulationMean :
sample : IReadOnlyCollection<float> -> UncertainValue
Parameters
- sample
- Type: System.Collections.Generic.IReadOnlyCollection<Double>
The sample.
Return Value
Type:
UncertainValueAn estimate, with uncertainty, of the mean of the distribution from which the sample was drawn.
Usage Note
In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type
IReadOnlyCollection<Double>. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see
Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or
Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).
Exceptions
RemarksIn contrast to the Mean(IReadOnlyCollection<Double> ) method, this method estimates
the mean of the underlying population from which the sample was drawn, and provides a error estimate
for that value.
