WinsorizedMean[list,f]
gives the mean of the elements in list after replacing the fraction f of the smallest and largest elements by the remaining extreme values.
WinsorizedMean[list,{f1,f2}]
gives the mean when the fraction f1 of the smallest elements and the fraction f2 of the largest elements are replaced by the remaining extreme values.
WinsorizedMean[dist,…]
gives the winsorized mean of a univariate distribution dist.
