/**
* Computes the arithmetic mean of a double-precision floating-point strided array using Welford's algorithm.
*
* ## Method
*
* - This implementation uses Welford's algorithm for efficient computation, which can be derived as follows
*
* ```tex
* \begin{align*}
* \mu_n &= \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=0}^{n-1} x_i \\
* &= \frac{1}{n} \biggl(x_{n-1} + \sum_{i=0}^{n-2} x_i \biggr) \\
* &= \frac{1}{n} (x_{n-1} + (n-1)\mu_{n-1}) \\
* &= \mu_{n-1} + \frac{1}{n} (x_{n-1} - \mu_{n-1})
* \end{align*}
* ```
