% STK_VARIANCE_EVAL [experimental]
%
% CALL: V = stk_variance_eval (NOISEMODEL, X, DIFF)
%
% EXPERIMENTAL FUNCTION WARNING
%
%   This function is currently considered experimental, since the whole
%   'noise model classes' thing is.
%
%   Classes derived from stk_gaussiannoise_ must implement this to define the
%   value of the variance at any given point x.
%
%   In the future, it might be a good idea to make such a function part of
%   the "standard API" of all models in STK, together with similar
%   functions such as:
%
%    * M = stk_mean_eval (MODEL, X, DIFF)
%    * V = stk_variance_eval (NOISEMODEL, X, DIFF)
%    * Q = stk_quantile_eval (NOISEMODEL, X, DIFF)
%    * ...
%
%    STK users that wish to experiment with this function, and more
%    generally with noise model objects, are welcome to do so, but should
%    be aware that the API is very likely to change in the future.
%    Please send questions, comments and suggestions about this part of the
%    toolbox to the STK mailing list.
