npm install @stdlib/stats-base-dists-logistic-varianceWe believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js. The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases. When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there. To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

> [Logistic][logistic-distribution] distribution [variance][variance].
The [variance][variance] for a [logistic][logistic-distribution] random variable with location μ and scale s > 0 is
Installation
``bash`
npm install @stdlib/stats-base-dists-logistic-variance
Usage
`javascript`
var variance = require( '@stdlib/stats-base-dists-logistic-variance' );
#### variance( mu, s )
Returns the [variance][variance] for a [logistic][logistic-distribution] distribution with location parameter mu and scale parameter s.
`javascript
var y = variance( 2.0, 1.0 );
// returns ~3.29
y = variance( 0.0, 1.0 );
// returns ~3.29
y = variance( -1.0, 4.0 );
// returns ~52.638
`
If provided NaN as any argument, the function returns NaN.
`javascript
var y = variance( NaN, 1.0 );
// returns NaN
y = variance( 0.0, NaN );
// returns NaN
`
If provided s <= 0, the function returns NaN.
`javascript
var y = variance( 0.0, 0.0 );
// returns NaN
y = variance( 0.0, -1.0 );
// returns NaN
`
Examples
`javascript
var uniform = require( '@stdlib/random-array-uniform' );
var logEachMap = require( '@stdlib/console-log-each-map' );
var variance = require( '@stdlib/stats-base-dists-logistic-variance' );
var opts = {
'dtype': 'float64'
};
var mu = uniform( 10, -5.0, 5.0, opts );
var s = uniform( 10, 0.0, 20.0, opts );
logEachMap( 'µ: %0.4f, s: %0.4f, Var(X;µ,s): %0.4f', mu, s, variance );

#### stdlib_base_dists_logistic_variance( mu, s )
Returns the variance for a logistic distribution with location mu and scale s.
`c`
double out = stdlib_base_dists_logistic_variance( 0.0, 1.0 );
// returns ~3.29
The function accepts the following arguments:
- mu: [in] double location parameter.[in] double
- s: scale parameter.
