> Compute an [unbiased sample variance][sample-variance] incrementally, ignoring `NaN` values.

## Usage

```javascript
var incrnanvariance = require( '@stdlib/stats/incr/nanvariance' );
```

#### incrnanvariance( \[mean] )

Returns an accumulator `function` which incrementally computes an [unbiased sample variance][sample-variance].

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

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

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

#### accumulator( \[x] )

If provided an input value `x`, the accumulator function returns an updated [unbiased sample variance][sample-variance]. If not provided an input value `x`, the accumulator function returns the current [unbiased sample variance][sample-variance].

```javascript
var accumulator = incrnanvariance();

var s2 = accumulator( 2.0 );
// returns 0.0

s2 = accumulator( 1.0 ); // => ((2-1.5)^2+(1-1.5)^2) / (2-1)
// returns 0.5

s2 = accumulator( 3.0 ); // => ((2-2)^2+(1-2)^2+(3-2)^2) / (3-1)
// returns 1.0

s2 = accumulator( NaN );
// returns 1.0

s2 = 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 randu = require( '@stdlib/random/base/randu' );
var incrnanvariance = require( '@stdlib/stats/incr/nanvariance' );

var accumulator;
var v;
var i;

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

// For each simulated datum, update the unbiased sample variance...
for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
if ( randu() < 0.2 ) {
v = NaN;
} else {
v = randu() * 100.0;
}
accumulator( v );
}
console.log( accumulator() );
```

{{alias}}( [mean] )
Returns an accumulator function which incrementally computes an unbiased
sample variance, ignorning `NaN` values.

If provided a value, the accumulator function returns an updated unbiased
sample variance. If not provided a value, the accumulator function returns
the current unbiased sample variance.

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

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

Examples
--------
> var accumulator = {{alias}}();
> var s2 = accumulator()
null
> s2 = accumulator( 2.0 )
0.0
> s2 = accumulator( -5.0 )
24.5
> s2 = accumulator( NaN )
24.5
> s2 = accumulator()
24.5
