{{alias}}( α )
Returns an accumulator function which incrementally computes an
exponentially weighted variance, where α is a smoothing factor between 0 and
1.
If provided a value, the accumulator function returns an updated variance.
If not provided a value, the accumulator function returns the current
variance.
If provided `NaN` or a value which, when used in computations, results in
`NaN`, the accumulated value is `NaN` for all future invocations.
Parameters
----------
α: number
Smoothing factor (value between 0 and 1).
Returns
-------
acc: Function
Accumulator function.
Examples
--------
> var accumulator = {{alias}}( 0.5 );
> var v = accumulator()
null
> v = accumulator( 2.0 )
0.0
> v = accumulator( -5.0 )
12.25
> v = accumulator()
12.25
