+## @deftypefn{Function File} { @var{jackstat} } = jackknife ( @var{E}, @var{x}, ... )
+## Compute jackknife estimates of a parameter taking one or more given samples as parameters.
## In particular, @var{E} is the estimator to be jackknifed as a function name, handle,
## or inline function, and @var{x} is the sample for which the estimate is to be taken.
-## @var{t} will be the estimate for the parameter, and @var{v} the estimate of its variance.
+## The @var{i}-th entry of @var{jackstat} will contain the value of the estimator
+## on the sample @var{x} with its @var{i}-th row omitted.
+## @code{jackstat(i) = E(x(1 : i - 1, i + 1 : length(x)))}.
##
## Depending on the number of samples to be used, the estimator must have the appropriate form:
## If only one sample is used, then the estimator need not be concerned with cell arrays,
## for example jackknifing the standard deviation of a sample can be performed with
-## @code{ [ @var{t}, @var{v} ] = jackknife(@@std, rand (100, 1))}.
+## @code{ @var{jackstat} = jackknife(@@std, rand (100, 1))}.
## If, however, more than one sample is to be used, the samples must all be of equal size,
## and the estimator must address them as elements of a cell-array,
## in which they are aggregated in their order of appearance:
-## @code{ [ @var{t}, @var{v} ] = jackknife(@@(x) std(x@{1@})/var(x@{2@}), rand (100, 1), randn (100, 1)}.
+## @code{ @var{jackstat} = jackknife(@@(x) std(x@{1@})/var(x@{2@}), rand (100, 1), randn (100, 1)}.
##
## If all goes well, a theoretical value @var{P} for the parameter is already known,
-## and @var{n} is the sample size, then
+## @var{n} is the sample size,
+## @code{ @var{t} = @var{n} * @var{E}(@var{x}) - (@var{n} - 1) * mean(@var{jackstat}) }, and
+## @code{ @var{v} = sumsq(@var{n} * @var{E}(@var{x}) - (@var{n} - 1) * @var{jackstat} - @var{t}) / (@var{n} * (@var{n} - 1)) }, then
## @code{ (@var{t}-@var{P})/sqrt(@var{v}) } should follow a t-distribution with @var{n}-1 degrees of freedom.

## Jackknifing is a well known method to reduce bias; further details can be found in:
