Combine two MeanSD's.
Mean squared error. In other words, a biased estimate of variance.
Converts this struct to a Mean struct. Also called when an implicit conversion via alias this takes place.
Simply returns this. Useful in generic programming contexts.
Output range to compute mean, stdev, variance online. Getter methods * for stdev, var cost a few floating point ops. Getter for mean costs * a single branch to check for N == 0. Relatively expensive floating point * ops, if you only need mean, try Mean. This struct uses O(1) space and * does *NOT* store the individual elements. * * Note: This struct can implicitly convert to a Mean struct. * * References: Computing Higher-Order Moments Online. * http://people.xiph.org/~tterribe/notes/homs.html * * Examples: * --- * MeanSD summ; * summ.put(1); * summ.put(2); * summ.put(3); * summ.put(4); * summ.put(5); * assert(summ.mean == 3); * assert(summ.stdev == sqrt(2.5)); * assert(summ.var == 2.5); * ---
