# scipy.stats.nanmean

`scipy.stats.``nanmean`(*args, **kwds)

  `nanmean` is deprecated! scipy.stats.nanmean is deprecated in scipy 0.15.0 in favour of numpy.nanmean.

  > Compute the mean over the given axis ignoring nans.

  Parameters: | x : ndarray Input array. axis : int or None, optional Axis along which the mean is computed. Default is 0. If None, compute over the whole array x.
  Returns: | m : float The mean of x, ignoring nans.

  Examples

      >>> from scipy import stats
      >>> a = np.linspace(0, 4, 3)
      >>> a
      array([ 0.,  2.,  4.])
      >>> a[-1] = np.nan
      >>> stats.nanmean(a)
      1.0
