{{alias}}()
Returns an accumulator function which incrementally computes a weighted
arithmetic mean.
If provided arguments, the accumulator function returns an updated weighted
mean. If not provided arguments, the accumulator function returns the
current weighted mean.
If provided `NaN` or a value which, when used in computations, results in
`NaN`, the accumulated value is `NaN` for all future invocations.
The accumulator function accepts two arguments:
- x: value.
- w: weight.
Returns
