Robust Mean & Std Deviation (M-Huber) in Distribution Platform

[#1]

Hi,

I have questions on Robust Mean & Robust Std. Dev which can be found in Distribution Platform.

I'm interested to use this robust statistics (the data is not normal - highly skewed).

Is there any way I can verify the calculation method for this Robust Mean & Robust Std. Dev?

If you select the ? tool, and click on the Summary Statistics Table Box, a Help screen will be displayed.  Scrolling down the page shows the information on the Robust Standard Deviation

You can also search the Statistics Index

Search on Robust Standard Deviation and it will bring up
