MathMomentsF

Calculates the theoretical numerical values of the first 4 moments of the Fisher’s F-distribution with the nu1 and nu2 parameters.

double  MathMomentsF(
   const double  nu1,            // the first parameter of distribution (number of degrees of freedom)
   const double  nu2,            // the second parameter of distribution (number of degrees of freedom)
   double&       mean,           // variable for the mean
   double&       variance,       // variable for the variance
   double&       skewness,       // variable for the skewness
   double&       kurtosis,       // variable for the kurtosis
   int&          error_code      // variable for the error code
   );

Parameters

nu1

[in] The first parameter of distribution (number of degrees of freedom).

nu2

[in] The second parameter of distribution (number of degrees of freedom).

mean

[out] Variable to get the mean value.

variance

[out] Variable to get the variance.

skewness

[out] Variable to get the skewness.

kurtosis

[out] Variable to get the kurtosis.

error_code

[out] Variable to get the error code.

Return Value

Returns true if calculation of the moments has been successful, otherwise false.
