Normalize

Normalize(y,x,i)

Rescales the values in «y» so that the area under the curve described by the points (x,y') is equal to 1, where y' is the result. When either «y» or «x» is an index, you can omit «i», and use just Normalize(y,x).

Should the function Normalize be deprecated and eventually removed from Analytica? See the discussion tab and please weigh in with your opinions!

Notes

Normalize does not force the values along index I to sum to 1; to make the values sum to 1, use

y/Sum(y,I).

Normalize does not cause the length of the resulting vector to be 1. To normalize in that sense, use:

y / Sqrt(Sum(y^2,I))
