This package has several objectives:
-
facilitate the calculation of the statistical distribution of a variable X for various binning choices
- Linear bins in X
- Logarithmic in X
- Linear percentile ranks (10th,20th,30th,40th,...), ie standard CDF calculation
- Inverse-logarithmic percentile ranks (90th, 99th, 99.9th, 99.99th, ...), ie calculation of extremes
-
calculate error bounds on the distribution with random resampling
-
compute conditional statistics (composites and variability) of variable Y within bins of X
-
implement all of the above for either a fixed dataset or over a moving time window
