=====Result:=====
 
Returns a scalar:
 
If <var>type</var>=<code>0</code>, the number of zero-crossings.
 
If <var>type</var>=<code>1</code>, the density of zero-crossings (number of zero-crossings / seconds).
 
If <var>type</var>=<code>2</code>, the frequency of zero-crossing (density / 2).
 
If <var>type</var>=<code>3</code>, the period length (1 / frequency = 2 / density).
 
=====Description:=====
 
Count the number of zero-crossings in the vector <var>x</var>. This is a subcommand of the <code>[[Programmer Guide/Command Reference/EVAL/EVAL|EVAL]]</code> command.

Compute zero crossing density.

Usage
zcross(x {type {, sr {, xth}}})
x
data vector (signal)
type
selects the type of result; 0 ≤ type ≤ 3 (default=0)
sr
sampling rate in Hz (default=1)
xth
threshold value (default=0); if xth is a value greater than 0, fluctuations of the function in the range -xth < x[i] < xth are ignored
Result
The function counts the number of zero crossings z of the function x[i] = f(i). The returned result is a scalar depending on z and the argument type.
type description result
0 the number of zero crossing z
1 the zero crossing density
(number of zero crossings / second)
d = z / (ncol(x) * sr)
2 the average zero crossing frequenzy (in Hz) f = d / 2
3 the average zero crossing periode length (in seconds) t = 1 / f = 2 / d
