pyinterp.DescriptiveStatistics

class pyinterp.DescriptiveStatistics(values: dask.array.core.Array | numpy.ndarray, weights: None | dask.array.core.Array | numpy.ndarray = None, axis: int | Iterable[int] | None = None, dtype: numpy.dtype | None = None)

Bases: object

Univariate descriptive statistics.

Calculates the incremental descriptive statistics from the provided values. The calculation of the statistics is done when the constructor is invoked. Different methods allow to extract the calculated statistics.

Parameters:

• values –

  Array containing numbers whose statistics are desired.

  . note:

  NaNs are automatically ignored.
  

• weights – An array of weights associated with the values. If not provided, all values are assumed to have equal weight.

• axis – Axis or axes along which to compute the statistics. If not provided, the statistics are computed over the flattened array.

• dtype – Data type of the returned array. By default, the data type is numpy.float64.
