{{alias}}( [mean] )
|
||
|
Returns an accumulator function which incrementally computes a corrected
|
||
|
sample standard deviation.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If provided a value, the accumulator function returns an updated corrected
|
||
|
sample standard deviation. If not provided a value, the accumulator function
|
||
|
returns the current corrected sample standard deviation.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If provided `NaN` or a value which, when used in computations, results in
|
||
|
`NaN`, the accumulated value is `NaN` for all future invocations.
