| skewness {e1071} | R Documentation |
Computes the skewness.
skewness(x, na.rm=FALSE)
x |
a numeric vector containing the values whose skewness is to be computed. |
na.rm |
a logical value indicating whether NA values
should be stripped before the computation proceeds. |
If N = length(x), then the skewness of x is defined as
N^(-1) sd(x)^(-3) sum_i (x_i - mean(x))^3.
The skewness of x.
x <- rnorm(100) skewness(x)
