## Usage

```javascript
var incrnanmmeanstdev = require( '@stdlib/stats/incr/nanmmeanstdev' );
```

#### incrnanmmeanstdev( \[out,] window )

Returns an accumulator function which incrementally computes a moving [arithmetic mean][arithmetic-mean] and [corrected sample standard deviation][standard-deviation], ignoring `NaN` values. The `window` parameter defines the number of values over which to compute the moving [arithmetic mean][arithmetic-mean] and [corrected sample standard deviation][standard-deviation].

```javascript
var accumulator = incrnanmmeanstdev( 3 );
```

By default, the returned accumulator `function` returns the accumulated values as a two-element `array`. To avoid unnecessary memory allocation, the function supports providing an output (destination) object.

```javascript
var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float64' );

var accumulator = incrnanmmeanstdev( new Float64Array( 2 ), 3 );
```

#### accumulator( \[x] )

If provided an input value `x`, the accumulator function returns updated accumulated values. If not provided an input value `x`, the accumulator function returns the current accumulated values.

```javascript
var accumulator = incrnanmmeanstdev( 3 );

var out = accumulator();
// returns null

// Fill the window...
out = accumulator( 2.0 ); // [2.0]
// returns [ 2.0, 0.0 ]

out = accumulator( 1.0 ); // [2.0, 1.0]
// returns [ 1.5, ~0.71 ]

out = accumulator( 3.0 ); // [2.0, 1.0, 3.0]
// returns [ 2.0, 1.0 ]

out = accumulator( NaN ); // [2.0, 1.0, 3.0]
// returns [ 2.0, 1.0 ]

// Window begins sliding...
out = accumulator( -7.0 ); // [1.0, 3.0, -7.0]
// returns [ -1.0, ~5.29 ]

out = accumulator( -5.0 ); // [3.0, -7.0, -5.0]
// returns [ -3.0, ~5.29 ]

out = accumulator();
// returns [ -3.0, ~5.29 ]
```

<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.
- As `W` values are needed to fill the window buffer, the first `W-1` returned values are calculated from smaller sample sizes. Until the window is full, each returned value is calculated from all provided values.

Same here

var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float64' );
var ArrayBuffer = require( '@stdlib/array/buffer' );
var incrnanmmeanstdev = require( '@stdlib/stats/incr/nanmmeanstdev' );

var offset;
var acc;
var buf;
var out;
var ms;
var N;
var v;
var i;
var j;

// Define the number of accumulators:
N = 5;

// Create an array buffer for storing accumulator output:
buf = new ArrayBuffer( N*2*8 ); // 8 bytes per element

// Initialize accumulators:
acc = [];
for ( i = 0; i < N; i++ ) {
// Compute the byte offset:
offset = i * 2 * 8; // stride=2, bytes_per_element=8

// Create a new view for storing accumulated values:
out = new Float64Array( buf, offset, 2 );

// Initialize an accumulator which will write results to the view:
acc.push( incrnanmmeanstdev( out, 5 ) );
}

// Simulate data and update the moving sample means and standard deviations...
for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
for ( j = 0; j < N; j++ ) {
v = randu() * 100.0 * (j+1);
acc[ j ]( v );
}
}

// Print the final results:
console.log( 'Mean\tStDev' );
for ( i = 0; i < N; i++ ) {
ms = acc[ i ]();
console.log( '%d\t%d', ms[ 0 ].toFixed( 3 ), ms[ 1 ].toFixed( 3 ) );
}
```

Suggested change
var randu = require( '@stdlib/random/base/randu' );

I think we don't need to use this package, instead we could just pass iteration number as input

var pkg = require( '@stdlib/stats/incr/nanmmeanstdev/package.json' ).name;
var incrnanmmeanstdev = require( '@stdlib/stats/incr/nanmmeanstdev/lib' );


// MAIN //

bench( pkg, function benchmark( b ) {
var f;
var i;
b.tic();
for ( i = 0; i < b.iterations; i++ ) {
f = incrnanmmeanstdev( (i%5)+1 );
if ( typeof f !== 'function' ) {
b.fail( 'should return a function' );
}
}
b.toc();
if ( typeof f !== 'function' ) {
b.fail( 'should return a function' );
}
b.pass( 'benchmark finished' );
b.end();
});

bench( pkg+'::accumulator', function benchmark( b ) {
var acc;
var v;
var i;

acc = incrnanmmeanstdev( 5 );

b.tic();
for ( i = 0; i < b.iterations; i++ ) {
v = acc( randu() );

Suggested change
v = acc( randu() );

Same reason

if ( v.length !== 2 ) {
b.fail( 'should contain two elements' );
}
}
b.toc();
if ( v[ 0 ] !== v[ 0 ] || v[ 1 ] !== v[ 1 ] ) {
b.fail( 'should not return NaN' );
}
b.pass( 'benchmark finished' );
b.end();
