Options may be passed as an object or as a number to specify only the range to use.
The number of array elements to use for the moving average. If no number is specified half of the length of the array is used.
Example
`js`
ema(arr, 10);
// or
ema(arr, {range: 10});
Format the numbers as they're added to the result.
`js`
ema(arr, {
format: function(num) {
return num.toFixed(3);
}
});
