Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) References See Also Examples

Description

This function calculates the kurtosis coefficient from a set of the input azimuths.

Usage

1

Arguments

azimuths

Vector containing the values of the azimuths

Details

One way to obtain a set of azimuths from X and Y coordinates of the vectors is to use the LoadData function.

Value

The value of the kurtosis coefficient for all input azimuths.
