## Usage

```javascript
var incrnanmape = require( '@stdlib/stats/incr/nanmape' );
```

#### incrnanmape()

Returns an accumulator `function` which incrementally computes the [mean absolute percentage error][mean-absolute-percentage-error], ignoring `NaN` values.

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

#### accumulator( \[f, a] )

If provided input values `f` and `a`, the accumulator function returns an updated [mean absolute percentage error][mean-absolute-percentage-error]. If not provided input values `f` and `a`, the accumulator function returns the current [mean absolute percentage error][mean-absolute-percentage-error].

```javascript
var accumulator = incrnanmape();

var m = accumulator( 2.0, 3.0 );
// returns ~33.33

m = accumulator( 2.0, NaN );
// returns ~33.33

m = accumulator( 1.0, 4.0 );
// returns ~54.17

m = accumulator( 3.0, 5.0 );
// returns ~49.44

m = accumulator();
// returns ~49.44
```

<section class="notes">

## 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.

- **Warning**: the [mean absolute percentage error][mean-absolute-percentage-error] has several shortcomings:

- The measure is **not** suitable for intermittent demand patterns (i.e., when `a_i` is `0`).
- The [mean absolute percentage error][mean-absolute-percentage-error] is not symmetrical, as the measure cannot exceed 100% for forecasts which are too "low" and has no limit for forecasts which are too "high".
- When used to compare the accuracy of forecast models (e.g., predicting demand), the measure is biased toward forecasts which are too low.

## Examples

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

```javascript
var randu = require( '@stdlib/random/base/randu' );
var incrnanmape = require( '@stdlib/stats/incr/nanmape' );

var accumulator;
var v1;
var v2;
var i;

// Initialize an accumulator:
accumulator = incrnanmape();

// For each simulated datum, update the mean absolute percentage error...
for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
if ( randu() < 0.2 ) {
v1 = NaN;
v2 = NaN;
} else {
v1 = ( randu()*100.0 ) + 50.0;
v2 = ( randu()*100.0 ) + 50.0;
}
accumulator( v1, v2 );
}
console.log( accumulator() );
```

{{alias}}()
Returns an accumulator function which incrementally computes the mean
absolute percentage error (MAPE), ignoring `NaN` values.

If provided input values, the accumulator function returns an updated mean
absolute percentage error. If not provided input values, the accumulator
function returns the current mean absolute percentage error.

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

Examples
--------
> var accumulator = {{alias}}();
> var m = accumulator()
null
> m = accumulator( 2.0, 3.0 )
~33.33
> m = accumulator( 2.0, NaN )
~33.33
> m = accumulator( 5.0, 2.0 )
