Parameters

values
Type: SystemDouble
A number array containing the vector members.
weights
Type: SystemInt32
A vector containing how many times each element in repeats itself in the non-weighted data.
unbiased
Type: SystemBoolean
Pass true to compute the sample variance; or pass false to compute the population variance. For integers weights , the bias correction is equivalent to the non-weighted case. For fractional weights, the variance bias cannot be completely eliminated.

Return Value

Type: Double
The variance of the given data.
