Problem in calculating EMA of a Stock

#1
I have searched a lot and every authour of Website gave a formula for EMA Calculation as shown below

EMA = EMAp + {K * (Price - EMAp)}

EMA = exponential moving average
EMAp = the previous period exponential moving average
K = smoothing constant
Price = current price
But nobody has mentioned how to get the previous period exponential moving average

Could you please tell me how to get the previous day EMA ??

Its previous 'close', to take into consideration for starting value for EMAp.
