Backward cumulative variance (population, non-d.f. corrected) of a series.
Decreasing samples calculation of the population (non-d.f. corrected) Pearson product moment variance.
Syntax: @cumbvarp(x, [s])
x: series
s: (optional) sample string
Return: series
The population variance for each observation
is calculated as
where
is the last period of the cumulative process,
, and
is the mean of
over the last
observations.
Examples
show @cumbvarp(x)
generates a linked series of the backward cumulative population variance of the series x.
