Mean absolute deviation — madev • leem

Compute the sample mean absolute deviation

Usage

madev(x, rounding = 2, na.rm = FALSE, details = FALSE, grouped = TRUE)

Arguments

x: R object (list) of class leem. Use new_leem() function.
rounding: Numerical object. Rounds the values in its first argument to the specified number of decimal places (default 2).
na.rm: a logical value indicating whether NA values should be stripped before the computation proceeds.
details: Logical object. Details of data (default FALSE).
grouped: Logical object. Determines whether the measure of position result will be based on grouped data or not (default TRUE).

Examples

# Example 1: Poisson data
set.seed(10)
rpois(30, 2.5) |>
  new_leem() |>
  madev(grouped = FALSE)
#> [1] 27.62
# Example 2: Normal data
rnorm(50, 100, 2.5) |>
  new_leem(variable = 2) |>
  madev()
#> [1] 97.56
