Mean Absolute Deviation
Description
Compute the mean absolute deviation about the mean
Usage
ds_mdev(data, x = NULL)
Arguments
data
A numeric vector or data.frame.
x
Column in data.
Details
The ds_mdev function computes the mean absolute deviation
about the mean. It is different from mad in stats package as
the statistic used to compute the deviations is not median but
mean. Any NA values are stripped from x before computation
takes place

Examples
# vector
ds_mdev(mtcars$mpg)
# data.frame
ds_mdev(mtcars, mpg)
