scipy.stats.circmean(samples, high=6.283185307179586, low=0, axis=None)[source]

Compute the circular mean for samples in a range.

Parameters:

samples : array_like

Input array.

high : float or int, optional

High boundary for circular mean range. Default is 2*pi.

low : float or int, optional

Low boundary for circular mean range. Default is 0.

axis : int, optional

Axis along which means are computed. The default is to compute the mean of the flattened array.

Returns:

circmean : float

Circular mean.
