/**
* Computes the variance of a single-precision floating-point strided array using Welford's algorithm.
*
* ## Method
*
* -   This implementation uses Welford's algorithm for efficient computation, which can be derived as follows. Let
*
*     ```tex
*     \begin{align*}
*     S_n &= n \sigma_n^2 \\
*         &= \sum_{i=1}^{n} (x_i - \mu_n)^2 \\
*         &= \biggl(\sum_{i=1}^{n} x_i^2 \biggr) - n\mu_n^2
*     \end{align*}
*     ```
*
*     Accordingly,
*
*     ```tex
*     \begin{align*}
*     S_n - S_{n-1} &= \sum_{i=1}^{n} x_i^2 - n\mu_n^2 - \sum_{i=1}^{n-1} x_i^2 + (n-1)\mu_{n-1}^2 \\
*                   &= x_n^2 - n\mu_n^2 + (n-1)\mu_{n-1}^2 \\
*                   &= x_n^2 - \mu_{n-1}^2 + n(\mu_{n-1}^2 - \mu_n^2) \\
*                   &= x_n^2 - \mu_{n-1}^2 + n(\mu_{n-1} - \mu_n)(\mu_{n-1} + \mu_n) \\
*                   &= x_n^2 - \mu_{n-1}^2 + (\mu_{n-1} - x_n)(\mu_{n-1} + \mu_n) \\
*                   &= x_n^2 - \mu_{n-1}^2 + \mu_{n-1}^2 - x_n\mu_n - x_n\mu_{n-1} + \mu_n\mu_{n-1} \\
*                   &= x_n^2 - x_n\mu_n - x_n\mu_{n-1} + \mu_n\mu_{n-1} \\
*                   &= (x_n - \mu_{n-1})(x_n - \mu_n) \\
*                   &= S_{n-1} + (x_n - \mu_{n-1})(x_n - \mu_n)
*     \end{align*}
*     ```
*
*     where we use the identity
*
*     ```tex
*     x_n - \mu_{n-1} = n (\mu_n - \mu_{n-1})
*     ```
