Compute a robust median absolute deviation (MAD)
Usage
mad(data, centile = 50, medianCorrected = TRUE)
Arguments
- data
The data for which we compute the robust deviation
- centile
The centile used to exclude extreme values (only the "centile" part of the data are is to compute the mad)
- medianCorrected
TRUE if the series is corrected for its median, FALSE if the median is supposed to be 0
Value
The median absolute deviation
Examples
y <- rnorm(1000)
m <- rjd3toolkit::mad(y, centile = 70)
