+```c
+#include "stdlib/stats/base/dnanmskrange.h"

+
+#### stdlib_strided_dnanmskrange( N, \*X, strideX, \*Mask, strideMask )
+
+Computes the [range][range] of a double-precision floating-point strided array according to a `mask`, ignoring `NaN` values.
+
+```c
+#include <stdint.h>
+
+const double x[] = { 1.0, -2.0, 4.0, 2.0, 0.0/0.0 };
+const uint8_t mask[] = { 0, 0, 1, 0, 0 };
+
+double v = stdlib_strided_dnanmskrange( 5, x, 1, mask, 1 );
+// returns 4.0
+```
+
+The function accepts the following arguments:
+
+-   **N**: `[in] CBLAS_INT` number of indexed elements.
+-   **X**: `[in] double*` input array.
+-   **strideX**: `[in] CBLAS_INT` stride length for `X`.
+-   **Mask**: `[in] uint8_t*` mask array. If a `Mask` array element is `0`, the corresponding element in `X` is considered valid and included in computation. If a `Mask` array element is `1`, the corresponding element in `X` is considered invalid/missing and excluded from computation.
+-   **strideMask**: `[in] CBLAS_INT` stride length for `Mask`.
