/**
* Computes the arithmetic mean of a single-precision floating-point strided array, ignoring `NaN` values, using a two-pass error correction algorithm with extended accumulation, and returning an extended precision result.
*
* ## Method
*
* -   This implementation uses a two-pass approach, as suggested by Neely (1966).

* @param {PositiveInteger} N - number of indexed elements

* var v = dsnanmeanpn( N, x, 2, 1 );
* // returns 1.25
