Descriptive Statistics

Mean

  • Default R script: mean()

Median

  • Default R script: median()

Mode

Rarely used in Finance, but can be referred as the 'height' of distribution, representing the most frequent observation value.

  • Default R script: apply(x,2, function(col) skewness(col))

Kurtosis

Same story as with Skewness.

  • Default R script: apply(x,2, function(col) kurtosis(col))

Correlation

R code: cor()

Regression

R code: summary(lm(formula = ~)

Beta

Normality test

Jacque-Bera test
