Calculates sample L-moments, L-coefficients and covariance matrix of L-moments.
Lmoments(data,rmax=4,na.rm=FALSE,returnobject=FALSE,trim=c(0,0))
Lcoefs(data,rmax=4,na.rm=FALSE,trim=c(0,0))
Lmomcov(data,rmax=4,na.rm=FALSE)
Lmoments_calc(data,rmax=4)
Lmomcov_calc(data,rmax=4)returns an array of L-moments containing a row for each variable in data, or if returnobject=TRUE, a list containing the following:
an array of L-moments
an array of mean, L-scale and L-moment ratios
the value of the parameter 'trim'
a string with value "Lmoments" or "t1lmoments"
returns an array of L-coefficients (mean, L-scale, L-skewness, L-kurtosis, ...)
returns the covariance matrix of L-moments or a list of covariance matrices if the input has multiple columns.
is internal function.
is internal function.
matrix or data frame.
maximum order of L-moments.
a logical value indicating whether 'NA' values should be removed before the computation proceeds.
a logical value indicating whether a list object should be returned instead of an array of L-moments.
c(0,0) for ordinary L-moments and c(1,1) for trimmed (t=1) L-moments
