symmoments (version 1.2)

tounsorted: Compute an unsorted central moment object from a sorted object

Description

Produces an unsorted central moment object from a sorted object of class "moment".

Unsorted moments are those with exponents not in numeric order, e.g., m312.

Usage

tounsorted(moment,sorted.moment)

Arguments

moment

unsorted moment to obtain moment is in vector form, eg, c(3,1,2)

sorted.moment

sorted moment to use in obtaining unsorted moment

Value

A object of class 'moment', which is a list with three components:

moment

the input moment vector

representation

a matrix containing the representation in terms of upper-triangular matrices

coefficients

the coefficients corresponding to the rows of the representation

Details

The unsorted moment is obtained by resorting the rows and columns of the sorted moment sucessively.
