Function Reference: plstat

statistics: [m, v] = plstat (x, Fx)

Compute statistics of the piecewise linear distribution.

[m, v] = plstat (x, Fx) returns the mean, m, and variance, v, of the piecewise linear distribution with a vector of x values at which the CDF changes slope and a vector of CDF values Fx that correspond to each value in x. Both x and Fx must be vectors of the same size and at least 2-elements long.
