Compute the unbiased sample variance over all iterated values.

Package Exports

  • @stdlib/stats-iter-variance

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@stdlib/stats-iter-variance) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

itervariance

NPM version Build Status Coverage Status dependencies

Compute the unbiased sample variance over all iterated values.

The unbiased sample variance is defined as

Equation for the unbiased sample variance.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/stats-iter-variance

Usage

var itervariance = require( '@stdlib/stats-iter-variance' );

itervariance( iterator[, mean] )

Computes the unbiased sample variance over all iterated values.

var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array-to-iterator' );

var arr = array2iterator( [ 2.0, 1.0, 3.0 ] );

var s2 = itervariance( arr );
// returns 1.0

If the mean is already known, provide a mean argument.

var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array-to-iterator' );

var arr = array2iterator( [ 2.0, 1.0, 3.0 ] );

var s2 = itervariance( arr, 2.0 );
// returns ~0.67

Notes

  • If an iterated value is non-numeric (including NaN), the returned iterator returns NaN. If non-numeric iterated values are possible, you are advised to provide an iterator which type checks and handles non-numeric values accordingly.

Examples

var runif = require( '@stdlib/random-iter-uniform' );
var itervariance = require( '@stdlib/stats-iter-variance' );

// Create an iterator for generating uniformly distributed pseudorandom numbers:
var rand = runif( -10.0, 10.0, {
    'seed': 1234,
    'iter': 100
});

// Compute the unbiased sample variance:
var s2 = itervariance( rand );
// returns <number>

console.log( 'Variance: %d.', s2 );

Notice

This package is part of stdlib, a standard library for JavaScript and Node.js, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computing. The library provides a collection of robust, high performance libraries for mathematics, statistics, streams, utilities, and more.
