This is the same asndarray.var, except that where anndarray wouldbe returned, amatrix object is returned instead.

Examples

>>>x=np.matrix(np.arange(12).reshape((3,4)))>>>xmatrix([[ 0,  1,  2,  3],        [ 4,  5,  6,  7],        [ 8,  9, 10, 11]])>>>x.var()11.916666666666666>>>x.var(0)matrix([[ 10.66666667,  10.66666667,  10.66666667,  10.66666667]]) # may vary>>>x.var(1)matrix([[1.25],        [1.25],        [1.25]])
