Details

Calculate the Weighted Moving Average (wma) for X in a sliding window of the given length.

The formula is:

\(WMA = (X_1 * 1 + X_2 * 2 + ... + X_n * n) / (1 + 2 + ... + n)\)

Examples

$ x=12.1 12.2 12.6 12.8 11.9 11.6 11.2
$ wma(x,3);
[,,12.383333333333332,12.633333333333334,12.316666666666668,11.9,11.450000000000001]

$ x=matrix(12.1 12.2 12.6 12.8 11.9 11.6 11.2, 14 15 18 19 21 12 10)
$ wma(x,3);
