| mad {BiocGenerics} | R Documentation |
Compute the median absolute deviation for a vector, dispatching only
on the first argument, x.
NOTE: This man page is for the mad S4 generic function
defined in the BiocGenerics package.
See ?stats::mad for the default method
(defined in the stats package).
Bioconductor packages can define specific methods for objects
not supported by the default method.
mad(x, center = median(x), constant = 1.4826,
na.rm = FALSE, low = FALSE, high = FALSE)
x, center, constant, na.rm, low, high |
