{{alias}}( W[, mean] )
|
|
Returns an accumulator function which incrementally computes a moving
|
|
coefficient of variation (CV).
|
|
|
|
The `W` parameter defines the number of values over which to compute the
|
|
moving coefficient of variation.
|
|
|
|
If provided a value, the accumulator function returns an updated moving
|
|
coefficient of variation. If not provided a value, the accumulator function
|
|
returns the current moving coefficient of variation.
|
|
|
|
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
