      • normalize

        public static double[] normalize​(double... sample)
        Normalize (standardize) the sample, so it is has a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1.

      • mode

        public static double[] mode​(double... sample)
                     throws MathIllegalArgumentException
        Returns the sample mode(s).

        The mode is the most frequently occurring value in the sample. If there is a unique value with maximum frequency, this value is returned as the only element of the output array. Otherwise, the returned array contains the maximum frequency elements in increasing order.

        For example, if sample is {0, 12, 5, 6, 0, 13, 5, 17}, the returned array will have length two, with 0 in the first element and 5 in the second.

        NaN values are ignored when computing the mode - i.e., NaNs will never appear in the output array. If the sample includes only NaNs or has length 0, an empty array is returned.

        Parameters:
        sample - input data
        Returns:
        array of array of the most frequently occurring element(s) sorted in ascending order.
        Throws:

        Returns the sample mode(s).

        The mode is the most frequently occurring value in the sample. If there is a unique value with maximum frequency, this value is returned as the only element of the output array. Otherwise, the returned array contains the maximum frequency elements in increasing order.

        For example, if sample is {0, 12, 5, 6, 0, 13, 5, 17}, the returned array will have length two, with 0 in the first element and 5 in the second.

        NaN values are ignored when computing the mode - i.e., NaNs will never appear in the output array. If the sample includes only NaNs or has length 0, an empty array is returned.

        Parameters:
        sample - input data
        begin - index (0-based) of the first array element to include
        length - the number of elements to include
        Returns:
