Descripción
### Description
This RFC proposes adding a function to calculate the Bray-Curtis distance between two strided arrays.
Package: `@stdlib/math/strided/distances/braycurtis`
The function should have the following signature `braycurtis( N, x, strideX, y, strideY )`.
- N: Number of elements
- x: First array
- strideX: Stride for the first array
- y: Second array
- strideY: Stride for the second array
The function should return the Bray-Curtis distance between the two arrays. It is calculated by
```
d = sum( |x_i - y_i| ) / sum( |x_i + y_i| )
```
where `x_i` and `y_i` are corresponding elements from the two arrays.
