performBinning

public static int[] performBinning(double[] values,
                                   double min,
                                   double max,
                                   int number_of_bins)

sampleStandardUnit

public static double sampleStandardUnit(double value,
                                        double mean,
                                        double sd)

Computes the sample standard unit (z-score). Used to compute 'value' in terms of standard units. Note that 'value', 'mean' and 'sd' must be all from the same sample data.

Parameters:

value - a double in the sample for which

mean - the mean of the sample.

sd - The standard deviation of the sample.

Returns:

'value' in terms of standard units
