summary.se.skewness Function (GPL)

Syntax

summary.se.skewness(<algebra>)

or 

summary.se.skewness(<binning function>)

or 

summary.se.skewness(<statistic function>)

<algebra>. Graph algebra, such as x*y. Refer to Brief Overview of GPL Algebra for an introduction to graph algebra.

<binning function>. A binning function.

<statistic function>. Another statistic function. The result of the embedded statistic is used to calculate summary.se.skewness.

Description

Calculates the standard error of the skewness, which is the standard deviation of the sample skewness values. If the function is evaluating graph algebra, the standard error of the analysis variable is returned. For more information about analysis variables, see the discussion in Brief Overview of GPL Algebra .

Examples

Figure 1. Example: Calculating the standard error of the skewness of salary for each jobcat category
ELEMENT: interval(position(summary.se.skewness(jobcat*salary)))
