Calculating moving average

Question

I\'m trying to use R to calculate the moving average over a series of values in a matrix. The normal R mailing list search hasn\'t been very helpful though. There doesn\'t s

Answer 1

In data.table 1.12.0 new frollmean function has been added to compute fast and exact rolling mean carefully handling NA, NaN and +Inf, -Inf values.

As there is no reproducible example in the question there is not much more to address here.

You can find more info about ?frollmean in manual, also available online at ?frollmean.

Examples from manual below:

library(data.table)
d = as.data.table(list(1:6/2, 3:8/4))

# rollmean of single vector and single window
frollmean(d[, V1], 3)

# multiple columns at once
frollmean(d, 3)

# multiple windows at once
frollmean(d[, .(V1)], c(3, 4))

# multiple columns and multiple windows at once
frollmean(d, c(3, 4))

## three above are embarrassingly parallel using openmp
