chebyshev: Chebysev's inequality

In LDLcalc: Calculate and Predict the Low Density Lipoprotein Values

Chebysev's inequality

Description

Function to calculate lower and upper bounds for which at least 75% of data points of a distribution lie within ±2SD of the mean using Chebyshev's inequality.

Usage

chebyshev(vec)

Arguments

vec	The vector containing the values of the data set.

Value

It outputs the lower and upper bound of Chebyshevs 75% range and the lower and upper value of the range of the observed (measured) distribution.
