seqstatd {TraMineR} | R Documentation |
States frequency table and entropy
Description
Returns the state frequencies, the number of valid states and the entropy of the states distribution for each time unit.
Usage
seqstatd(seqdata, digits=2, norm=TRUE)
Arguments
seqdata |
a sequence object (see seqdef function). |
digits |
number of digits for the rounding of the results. Default to 2, set to NULL if you don't want any rounding. |
norm |
if TRUE (the default value), entropy is normalized, ie divided by the entropy of the alphabet. Set to FALSE if you want the entropy without normalization. |
