[jira] [Issue Comment Edited] (MATH-704) One of Variance.evaluate()
methods does not work correctly
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-704?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13158395#comment-13158395 ]

----------------------------------------------------------------
I have found a small bug wrt this bug report. The sum of the weights is calculated on the whole weight array rather than the specified sub-array [begin, begin + length).
See the attached patch for more details. Still need a testcase to verify that it finally addresses the original bug report.

> The method org.apache.commons.math.stat.descriptive.moment.Variance.evaluate(double[] values, double[] weights, double mean, int begin, int length) does not work properly. Looks loke it ignores the length parameter and grabs the whole dataset.
> Similar method in Mean class seems to work.
> I did not check other methods taking the part of the array; they may have the same problem.
> Workaround: I had to shrink my arrays and use the method without the length.
