| Summary : Statistics-Descriptive - Supplies statistical methods for perl5
|
Description :
This module provides basic functions used in descriptive statistics.
It has an object oriented design and supports two different types of
data storage and calculation objects: sparse and full. With the sparse
method, none of the data is stored and only a few statistical measures
are available. Using the full method, the entire data set is retained
and additional functions are available.
Whenever a division by zero may occur, the denominator is checked to be
greater than the value C< $Statistics::Descriptive::Tolerance>, which
defaults to 0.0. You may want to change this value to some small
positive value such as 1e-24 in order to obtain error messages in case
of very small denominators.
Many of the methods (both Sparse and Full) cache values so that subsequent
calls with the same arguments are faster.
