-Basic statistics module.
-
-This module provides functions for calculating statistics of data, including
-averages, variance, and standard deviation.
-
-Calculating averages
---------------------
-
-================== =============================================
-Function Description
-================== =============================================
-mean Arithmetic mean (average) of data.
-median Median (middle value) of data.
-median_low Low median of data.
-median_high High median of data.
-median_grouped Median, or 50th percentile, of grouped data.
-mode Mode (most common value) of data.
-================== =============================================
-
-Calculate the arithmetic mean ("the average") of data:
-
->>> mean([-1.0, 2.5, 3.25, 5.75])
-2.625
-
-
-Calculate the standard median of discrete data:
-
->>> median([2, 3, 4, 5])
-3.5
-
-
-Calculate the median, or 50th percentile, of data grouped into class intervals
-centred on the data values provided. E.g. if your data points are rounded to
-the nearest whole number:
-
->>> median_grouped([2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4]) #doctest: +ELLIPSIS
-2.8333333333...
-
-This should be interpreted in this way: you have two data points in the class
-interval 1.5-2.5, three data points in the class interval 2.5-3.5, and one in
-the class interval 3.5-4.5. The median of these data points is 2.8333...
-
-
-Calculating variability or spread
----------------------------------
-
-================== =============================================
-Function Description
-================== =============================================
-pvariance Population variance of data.
-variance Sample variance of data.
-pstdev Population standard deviation of data.
-stdev Sample standard deviation of data.
-================== =============================================
-
-Calculate the standard deviation of sample data:
-
->>> stdev([2.5, 3.25, 5.5, 11.25, 11.75]) #doctest: +ELLIPSIS
-4.38961843444...
-
-If you have previously calculated the mean, you can pass it as the optional
-second argument to the four "spread" functions to avoid recalculating it:
-
->>> data = [1, 2, 2, 4, 4, 4, 5, 6]
->>> mu = mean(data)
->>> pvariance(data, mu)
-2.5
-
-
-Exceptions
-----------
-
-A single exception is defined: StatisticsError is a subclass of ValueError.
