featuretools.primitives.Skew#

class featuretools.primitives.Skew[source]#

Computes the extent to which a distribution differs from a normal distribution.

Description:: For normally distributed data, the skewness should be about 0. A skewness value > 0 means that there is more weight in the left tail of the distribution.

Examples

>>> skew = Skew()
>>> skew([1, 10, 30, None])
1.0437603722639681
