{{alias}}( arr[, options] )
Computes the sample ranks for the values of an array-like object.
When all elements of the `array` are different, the ranks are uniquely
determined. When there are equal elements (called *ties*), the `method`
option determines how they are handled. The default, `'average'`, replaces
the ranks of the ties by their mean. Other possible options are `'min'` and
`'max'`, which replace the ranks of the ties by their minimum and maximum,
respectively. `'dense'` works like `'min'`, with the difference that the
next highest element after a tie is assigned the next smallest integer.
Finally, `ordinal` gives each element in `arr` a distinct rank, according to
the position they appear in.
The `missing` option is used to specify how to handle missing data.
By default, `NaN` or `null` are treated as missing values. `'last'`specifies
that missing values are placed last, `'first'` that the are assigned the
lowest ranks and `'remove'` means that they are removed from the array
before the ranks are calculated.
Parameters
----------
arr: Array<number>
Input values.
options: Object (optional)
Function options.
options.method (optional)
Method name determining how ties are treated (`average`, `min`, `max`,
`dense`, or `ordinal`). Default: `'average'`.
options.missing (optional)
Determines where missing values go (`first`, `last`, or `remove`).
Default: `'last'`.
options.encoding (optional)
Array of values encoding missing values. Default: `[ null, NaN ]`.
Returns
-------
out: Array
Array containing the computed ranks for the elements of the input array.
Examples
--------
> var arr = [ 1.1, 2.0, 3.5, 0.0, 2.4 ] ;
> var out = {{alias}}( arr )
[ 2, 3, 5, 1, 4 ]
// Ties are averaged:
> arr = [ 2, 2, 1, 4, 3 ];
> out = {{alias}}( arr )
[ 2.5, 2.5, 1, 5, 4 ]
// Missing values are placed last:
> arr = [ null, 2, 2, 1, 4, 3, NaN, NaN ];
> out = {{alias}}( arr )
[ 6, 2.5, 2.5, 1, 5, 4, 7 ,8 ]
