rowVars {matrixStats}R Documentation

Variance estimates for each row (column) in a matrix

Description

Variance estimates for each row (column) in a matrix.

Usage

rowVars(x, rows = NULL, cols = NULL, na.rm = FALSE, center = NULL,
  dim. = dim(x), ...)

colVars(x, rows = NULL, cols = NULL, na.rm = FALSE, center = NULL,
  dim. = dim(x), ...)

Arguments

x

A numeric NxK matrix.

rows, cols

A vector indicating subset of rows (and/or columns) to operate over. If NULL, no subsetting is done.

na.rm

If TRUE, missing values are excluded first, otherwise not.

center

(optional) The center, defaults to the row means.

dim.

An integer vector of length two specifying the dimension of x, also when not a matrix.

...

Additional arguments passed to rowMeans() and rowSums().

Value

Returns a numeric vector of length N (K).

# Column variabilities

# Row ranges
