Moving average smoothing

Description

The mas() function returns a simple moving average smoother of the provided time series.

Usage

mas(x, order)

Arguments

x

A numeric vector or univariate time series.

order

Order of moving average smoother.

Details

The moving average smoother transformation is given by

(1/k) * ( x[t] + x[t+1] + ... + x[t+k-1] )

where k=order, t assume values in the range 1:(n-k+1), and n=length(x). See also the ma of the forecast package.

Value

Numerical time series of length length(x)-order+1 containing the simple moving average smoothed values.
