by Adam Wyatt
Generates the nth order moment of a function.

| mymoment(x, y, n) |
function [mom] = mymoment(x, y, n)
%MYMOMENT: Computes the nth moment mean of a function (needs more
%implentation).
%
% m = moment(x, y, n)
%
% m = nth moment of y
% x = domain
% y = data
% n = nth moment == 1 by default
%
% m = int(x^n * y) / int(y)
%
% where int is integral over all x
% integral is calculated using trapezium rule
%
% v1.0
if ~exist('n', 'var')
n = 1;
end
p = ((x.^n)*ones(1, size(y,2))).*y;
% mom = sum(xi^n * yi * dxi) / sum(yi * dxi)
% i = pixel number
% dx = pixel width
mom = trapz(x, p)./trapz(x, y);
