## Struct template weighted_skewness_impl

boost::accumulators::impl::weighted_skewness_impl — Skewness estimation for weighted samples.

## Synopsis

    // In header: <boost/accumulators/statistics_fwd.hpp>

    template<typename Sample, typename Weight>
    struct weighted_skewness_impl : public accumulator_base {
      // construct/copy/destruct
      weighted_skewness_impl(dont_care);

      // public member functions
      template<typename Args> result_type result(Args const &) const;
    };

## Description

The skewness of a sample distribution is defined as the ratio of the 3rd central moment and the -th power $ of the 2nd central moment (the variance) of the samples. The skewness can also be expressed by the simple moments:

Equation 1.42.

where are the -th moment and the mean (first moment) of the samples.

The skewness estimator for weighted samples is formally identical to the estimator for unweighted samples, except that the weighted counterparts of all measures it depends on are to be taken.
