Transition Calculation

The transition values are calculated like this:

LSA_TransitionFormula

Where:

tij = Transition Probability

xij = Frequency of Code i followed by Code j

xi+ = Summary of all frequencies in a row

Translated to the frequency table this looks like this:

Note: If you have a total number of events N, you will have "N - 1" lag-1 transitions
