## Usage

```javascript
var incrnanstdev = require( '@stdlib/stats/incr/nanstdev' );
```

#### incrnanstdev( \[mean] )

Returns an accumulator function which incrementally computes a [corrected sample standard deviation][sample-stdev], ignoring `NaN` values.

```javascript
var accumulator = incrnanstdev();
```

If the mean is already known, provide a `mean` argument.

```javascript
var accumulator = incrnanstdev( 3.0 );
```

#### accumulator( \[x] )

If provided an input value `x`, the accumulator function returns an updated [corrected sample standard deviation][sample-stdev]. If not provided an input value `x`, the accumulator function returns the current [corrected sample standard deviation][sample-stdev].

```javascript
var accumulator = incrnanstdev();

var s = accumulator( 2.0 );
// returns 0.0

s = accumulator( 1.0 ); // => sqrt(((2-1.5)^2+(1-1.5)^2) / (2-1))
// returns ~0.7071

s = accumulator( 3.0 ); // => sqrt(((2-2)^2+(1-2)^2+(3-2)^2) / (3-1))
// returns 1.0

s = accumulator( NaN );
// returns 1.0

s = accumulator();
// returns 1.0
```

## Notes

- Input values are **not** type checked. If non-numeric inputs are possible, you are advised to type check and handle accordingly **before** passing the value to the accumulator function.

## Examples

<!-- eslint no-undef: "error" -->

```javascript
var uniform = require( '@stdlib/random/base/uniform' );
var bernoulli = require( '@stdlib/random/base/bernoulli' );
var incrnanstdev = require( '@stdlib/stats/incr/nanstdev' );

// Initialize an accumulator:
var accumulator = incrnanstdev();

// For each simulated datum, update the sample standard deviation...
var i;
for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
accumulator( ( bernoulli( 0.8 ) < 1 ) ? NaN : uniform( 0.0, 100.0 ) );
}
console.log( accumulator() );
```

{{alias}}( [mean] )
Returns an accumulator function which incrementally computes a corrected
sample standard deviation, ignoring `NaN` values.

If provided a value, the accumulator function returns an updated corrected
sample standard deviation. If not provided a value, the accumulator function
returns the current corrected sample standard deviation.

Parameters
----------
mean: number (optional)
Known mean.

Returns
-------
acc: Function
Accumulator function.

Examples
--------
> var accumulator = {{alias}}();
> var s = accumulator()
null
> s = accumulator( 2.0 )
0.0
> s = accumulator( -5.0 )
~4.95
> s = accumulator( NaN )
~4.95
> s = accumulator()
~4.95
