scipy.stats.circmean¶
-
scipy.stats.circmean(samples, high=6.283185307179586, low=0, axis=None)[source]¶ Compute the circular mean for samples in a range.
- Parameters
- samplesarray_like
Input array.
- highfloat or int, optional
High boundary for circular mean range. Default is
2*pi.- lowfloat or int, optional
Low boundary for circular mean range. Default is 0.
- axisint, optional
Axis along which means are computed. The default is to compute the mean of the flattened array.
- Returns
- circmeanfloat
Circular mean.
Examples
>>> from scipy.stats import circmean >>> circmean([0.1, 2*np.pi+0.2, 6*np.pi+0.3]) 0.2
>>> from scipy.stats import circmean >>> circmean([0.2, 1.4, 2.6], high = 1, low = 0) 0.4
