{{alias}}( W[, mean] )
|
||
|
Returns an accumulator function which incrementally computes a moving
|
||
|
corrected sample standard deviation.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The `W` parameter defines the number of values over which to compute the
|
||
|
moving corrected sample standard deviation.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If provided a value, the accumulator function returns an updated moving
|
||
|
corrected sample standard deviation. If not provided a value, the
|
||
|
accumulator function returns the current moving corrected sample standard
|
||
|
deviation.
|
||
|
|
||
|
As `W` values are needed to fill the window buffer, the first `W-1` returned
|
||
|
values are calculated from smaller sample sizes. Until the window is full,
|
||
|
each returned value is calculated from all provided values.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Parameters

W: integer
|
||
|
Window size.
|
||
|
|
||
|
mean: number (optional)
|
||
|
Known mean.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Returns

Examples

|
--------
|
||
|
> var accumulator = {{alias}}( 3 );
|
||
|
> var s = accumulator()
|
||
|
null
|
||
|

|
||
|
0.0
|
