/**
* Returns a function for filling strided arrays containing pseudorandom numbers drawn from a chi-square distribution.
*
* @name factory
* @type {Function}
* @param {Options} [options] - function options
* @param {PRNG} [options.prng] - pseudorandom number generator which generates uniformly distributed pseudorandom numbers
* @param {PRNGSeedMT19937} [options.seed] - pseudorandom number generator seed
* @param {PRNGStateMT19937} [options.state] - pseudorandom number generator state
* @param {boolean} [options.copy=true] - boolean indicating whether to copy a provided pseudorandom number generator state
* @throws {TypeError} options argument must be an object
* @throws {TypeError} must provide valid options
* @throws {Error} must provide a valid state
* @returns {Function} function for filling strided arrays
*
* @example
* var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float64' );
*
* var chisquare = factory();
* // returns <Function>
*
* var out = new Float64Array( 10 );
* // returns <Float64Array>
*
* var arr = chisquare( out.length, [ 2.0 ], 0, out, 1 );
* // returns <Float64Array>
*
* var bool = ( arr === out );
* // returns true
