# xarray.computation.rolling_exp.RollingExp.mean

#### RollingExp.mean(keep_attrs=None)[[source]](https://github.com/pydata/xarray/blob/main/xarray/computation/rolling_exp.py#L97-L133)

Exponentially weighted moving average.

* **Parameters:**
  **keep_attrs** ([`bool`](https://docs.python.org/3/builtins/functions.html#bool), *default*: [`None`](https://docs.python.org/3/builtins/constants.html#None)) – If True, the attributes (`attrs`) will be copied from the original
  object to the new one. If False, the new object will be returned
  without attributes. If None uses the global default.
