assess
fun assessModality(numBootstrapSamples: Int = ModalityAnalyzer.defaultNumBootstrapSamples, streamNumber: Int = 0, streamProvider: RNStreamProviderIfc = KSLRandom.DefaultRNStreamProvider): ModalityAssessment(source)
How many modes the data appears to have, and whether that appearance survives smoothing.
A method rather than a property because it bootstraps and the rest do not. PDFModeler draws the same line: what is cheap is a property, what costs resamples is called.
Parameters
num
how many resamples the test draws
stream
the random number stream, so the result is reproducible
stream
the provider of that stream
