Function Reference: trimmean

statistics: a = trimmean (x, p)

Compute the trimmed mean.

The trimmed mean of x is defined as the mean of x excluding the highest and lowest p percent of the data.

For example

 
 mean ([-inf, 1:9, inf])
 

is NaN, while

 
 trimmean ([-inf, 1:9, inf], 10)
 

excludes the infinite values, which make the result 5.
