/**
* Computes the arithmetic mean of a double-precision floating-point strided array using a two-pass error correction algorithm.
*
* ## Method
*
* - This implementation uses a two-pass approach, as suggested by Neely (1966).
*

* @param {PositiveInteger} N - number of indexed elements
* @param {Float64Array} x - input array
* @param {integer} stride - stride length
* @param {NonNegativeInteger} offset - starting index
* @returns {number} arithmetic mean
*
* @example
* var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float64' );
* var floor = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/floor' );
*
* var x = new Float64Array( [ 2.0, 1.0, 2.0, -2.0, -2.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 ] );
* var N = floor( x.length / 2 );
*
* var v = dmeanpn( N, x, 2, 1 );
* // returns 1.25
