# scipy.stats.rv_discrete.stats

`rv_discrete.``stats`(*args, **kwds)

  Some statistics of the given RV.

  Parameters: | arg1, arg2, arg3,... : array_like The shape parameter(s) for the distribution (see docstring of the instance object for more information) loc : array_like, optional location parameter (default=0) scale : array_like, optional (continuous RVs only) scale parameter (default=1) moments : str, optional composed of letters [‘mvsk’] defining which moments to compute: ‘m’ = mean, ‘v’ = variance, ‘s’ = (Fisher’s) skew, ‘k’ = (Fisher’s) kurtosis. (default is ‘mv’)
  Returns: | stats : sequence of requested moments.
