# incrnanmae

> Compute the [mean absolute error][mean-absolute-error] (MAE) incrementally, ignoring `NaN` values.

## Usage

```javascript
var incrnanmae = require( '@stdlib/stats/incr/nanmae' );
```

#### incrnanmae()

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

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

#### accumulator( \[x, y] )

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

```javascript
var accumulator = incrnanmae();

var m = accumulator();
// returns null

m = accumulator( 2.0, 3.0 );
// returns 1.0

m = accumulator( NaN, 2.0 );
// returns 1.0

m = accumulator( -5.0, NaN );
// returns 1.0

m = accumulator( NaN, NaN );
// returns 1.0

m = accumulator( -5.0, 2.0 );
// returns 4.0

m = accumulator();
// returns 4.0
```

<section class="notes">

## Notes

- Input values are not type checked beyond checking for NaN. If provided values which are not numbers or NaN (e.g., strings, booleans), the behavior of the accumulator is undefined. If non-numeric inputs are possible, you are advised to type check and handle accordingly before passing the value to the accumulator function.
- If both provided values are NaN, the accumulated value is unchanged. The accumulator only updates when both inputs are valid numbers.
- **Warning**: the [mean absolute error][mean-absolute-error] is scale-dependent and, thus, the measure should **not** be used to make comparisons between datasets having different scales.

## Examples

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Examples
--------
> var incrnanmae = require( '@stdlib/stats/incr/nanmae' );
> var accumulator = incrnanmae();
> var m = accumulator()
null
> m = accumulator( 2.0, 3.0 )
1.0
> m = accumulator( NaN, 2.0 )
1.0
> m = accumulator( -5.0, NaN )
1.0
> m = accumulator( NaN, NaN )
1.0
> m = accumulator( -5.0, 2.0 )
4.0
> m = accumulator()
4.0
