3.11.12.1. Functions

corr2cov(corr, std) convert correlation matrix to covariance matrix given standard deviation
cov2corr(cov[, return_std]) convert covariance matrix to correlation matrix
cum2mc(kappa) convert non-central moments to cumulants
mc2cum(mc) just chained because I have still the test case
mc2mnc(mc) convert central to non-central moments, uses recursive formula
mc2mvsk(args) convert central moments to mean, variance, skew, kurtosis
mnc2cum(mnc) convert non-central moments to cumulants
mnc2mc(mnc[, wmean]) convert non-central to central moments, uses recursive formula
mnc2mvsk(args) convert central moments to mean, variance, skew, kurtosis
mvsk2mc(args) convert mean, variance, skew, kurtosis to central moments
mvsk2mnc(args) convert mean, variance, skew, kurtosis to non-central moments
se_cov(cov) get standard deviation from covariance matrix
