mean_remext()

Added in Version 1.0
Discontinued in Version 1.1

Usage

mean_remext(numlist, highextremes=1, lowextremes=1)

• Returns the mean of a list after extremes have been removed.
• numlist must be a list object containing only real numbers.
• highextremes is optional and determines the number of extremes on the high end of the list to remove. 1 is the default if the argument is omitted, but it can be changed to any positive number or 0.
• lowextremes is optional and determines the number of extremes on the low end of the list to remove. 1 is the default if the argument is omitted, but it can be changed to any positive number or 0.
• If you do not require extremes to be removed, consider using [mean()].
