Sheppard's Correction
A correction which must be applied to the measured moments
obtained from normally distributed data which have been binned in order to obtain correct estimators
for the population moments
. The corrected versions of the second, third, and fourth moments are then
where

If

the
th cumulant of the grouped distribution with class interval
, the corrected cumulants (under rather restrictive conditions) are

For a proof, see Kendall et al. (1998).
