# scipy.stats.mstats.moment

scipy.stats.mstats.moment(a, moment=1, axis=0)

  Calculates the nth moment about the mean for a sample.

  Parameters
    a array_like

      data

    moment int, optional

      order of central moment that is returned

    axis int or None, optional

      Axis along which the central moment is computed. Default is 0. If None, compute over the whole array a.

  Returns
    n-th central moment ndarray or float

      The appropriate moment along the given axis or over all values if axis is None. The denominator for the moment calculation is the number of observations, no degrees of freedom correction is done.
