## Detailed Description

Find the variance of values in the input.

This function performs the operation across all batches present in the input simultaneously.

## Function Documentation

AFAPI af_err af_var | ( | af_array * | out,
|  | const af_array | in,
|  | const bool | isbiased,
|  | const dim_t | dim
| ) |  |

C Interface for variance.

Parameters

  [out] | out | will contain the variance of the input array along dimension `dim`
  [in] | in | is the input array
  [in] | isbiased | is boolean denoting Population variance (false) or Sample Variance (true)
  [in] | dim | the dimension along which the variance is extracted

Returns
  AF_SUCCESS if the color transformation is successful, otherwise an appropriate error code is returned.

AFAPI af_err af_var_all | ( | double * | realVal,
|  | double * | imagVal,
|  | const af_array | in,
|  | const bool | isbiased
| ) |  |

C Interface for variance of all elements.

Parameters

  [out] | realVal | will contain the real part of variance of the entire input array
  [out] | imagVal | will contain the imaginary part of variance of the entire input array
  [in] | in | is the input array
  [in] | isbiased | is boolean denoting Population variance (false) or Sample Variance (true)

Returns
  AF_SUCCESS if the color transformation is successful, otherwise an appropriate error code is returned.

AFAPI af_err af_var_all_weighted | ( | double * | realVal,
|  | double * | imagVal,
|  | const af_array | in,
|  | const af_array | weights
| ) |  |

C Interface for variance of all elements in weighted input.

Parameters

  [out] | realVal | will contain the real part of variance of the entire weighted input array
  [out] | imagVal | will contain the imaginary part of variance of the entire weighted input array
  [in] | in | is the input array
  [in] | weights | is used to scale input `in` before getting variance

Returns
  AF_SUCCESS if the color transformation is successful, otherwise an appropriate error code is returned.

AFAPI af_err af_var_weighted | ( | af_array * | out,
|  | const af_array | in,
|  | const af_array | weights,
|  | const dim_t | dim
| ) |  |

C Interface for variance of weighted input array.

Parameters

  [out] | out | will contain the variance of the input array along dimension `dim`
  [in] | in | is the input array
  [in] | weights | is used to scale input `in` before getting variance
  [in] | dim | the dimension along which the variance is extracted

Returns
  AF_SUCCESS if the color transformation is successful, otherwise an appropriate error code is returned.

AFAPI array af::var | ( | const array & | in,
|  | const bool | isbiased = `false`,
|  | const dim_t | dim = `-1`
| ) |  |

C++ Interface for variance.

Parameters

  [in] | in | is the input array
  [in] | isbiased | is boolean denoting Population variance (false) or Sample Variance (true)
  [in] | dim | the dimension along which the variance is extracted

Returns
  the variance of the input array along dimension `dim`

Note
  `dim` is -1 by default. -1 denotes the first non-singleton dimension.

Examples:
  naive_bayes.cpp.

AFAPI array af::var | ( | const array & | in,
|  | const array & | weights,
|  | const dim_t | dim = `-1`
| ) |  |

C++ Interface for variance of weighted inputs.

Parameters

  [in] | in | is the input array
  [in] | weights | is used to scale input `in` before getting variance
  [in] | dim | the dimension along which the variance is extracted

Returns
  the variance of the weighted input array along dimension `dim`

Note
  `dim` is -1 by default. -1 denotes the first non-singleton dimension.

AFAPI T af::var | ( | const array & | in,
|  | const bool | isbiased = `false`
| ) |  |

C++ Interface for variance of all elements.

Parameters
