Expanding.sem(ddof=1, *args, **kwargs)[source]

Calculate the expanding standard error of mean.

Parameters
ddofint, default 1

Delta Degrees of Freedom. The divisor used in calculations is N - ddof, where N represents the number of elements.

*args

For NumPy compatibility and will not have an effect on the result.

**kwargs
