dnanrangeabs

Compute the range of absolute values of a one-dimensional double-precision floating-point ndarray, ignoring NaN values.

The range of absolute values is defined as the difference between the maximum and minimum absolute values.

Usage

var dnanrangeabs = require( '@stdlib/stats/base/ndarray/dnanrangeabs' );

dnanrangeabs( arrays )

Computes the range of absolute values of a one-dimensional double-precision floating-point ndarray, ignoring NaN values.

var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float64' );
var ndarray = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/base/ctor' );

var xbuf = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, -2.0, NaN, 2.0 ] );
var x = new ndarray( 'float64', xbuf, [ 4 ], [ 1 ], 0, 'row-major' );

var v = dnanrangeabs( [ x ] );
// returns 1.0

The function has the following parameters:

• arrays: array-like object containing a one-dimensional input ndarray.

Notes

• If provided an empty one-dimensional ndarray, the function returns NaN.

Examples

var uniform = require( '@stdlib/random/base/uniform' );
var filledarrayBy = require( '@stdlib/array/filled-by' );
var bernoulli = require( '@stdlib/random/base/bernoulli' );
var ndarray = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/base/ctor' );
var dnanrangeabs = require( '@stdlib/stats/base/ndarray/dnanrangeabs' );

function rand() {
    if ( bernoulli( 0.8 ) < 1 ) {
        return NaN;
    }
    return uniform( -50.0, 50.0 );
}

var xbuf = filledarrayBy( 10, 'float64', rand );
var x = new ndarray( 'float64', xbuf, [ xbuf.length ], [ 1 ], 0, 'row-major' );

var v = dnanrangeabs( [ x ] );
console.log( v );
