locMEstimator

Generic function for the computation of location M estimators

Generic function for the computation of location M estimators.

locMEstimator(x, IC, ...)

## S4 method for signature 'numeric,InfluenceCurve'
locMEstimator(x, IC, eps = .Machine$double.eps^0.5)

`x`	sample
`IC`	object of class `"InfluenceCurve"`
`...`	additional parameters
`eps`	the desired accuracy (convergence tolerance).

Returns a list with component
