uM2: Unbiased central moment estimates

Description

Calculate unbiased estimates of central moments and their powers and products.

Usage

uM2(m2, n)

Arguments

m2

naive biased variance estimate \(m_2 = 1/n \sum_{i = 1}^n ((X_i - \bar{X})^2\) for a vector X.

n

sample size.

Value

Unbiased variance estimate.

uM2(m[2], n) - var(smp)
