Learning objectives: Describe the four central moments of a statistical variable or distribution: mean, variance, skewness, and kurtosis. Interpret the skewness and kurtosis of a statistical distribution, and interpret the concepts of coskewness and cokurtosis. Describe and interpret the best...
In analyzing Miller's spreadsheet, I realized his book displays the formulas for co-skew and co-kurtosis incorrectly. There is a thematic confusion between the (unstandardized) cross-central moments versus "skew" and "kurtosis" which are standardized: 3.42 and 3.47 forget to divide by N, so they...
