About stdlib...

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.

The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.

When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.

To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

incrnansumabs2

NPM version Build Status Coverage Status

Compute a sum of squared absolute values incrementally, ignoring NaN values.

The sum of squared absolute values is defined as

$$s = \sum_{i=0}^{n-1} x_i^2$$

Usage

To use in Observable,

incrnansumabs2 = require( 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stdlib-js/stats-incr-nansumabs2@umd/browser.js' )

To vendor stdlib functionality and avoid installing dependency trees for Node.js, you can use the UMD server build:

var incrnansumabs2 = require( 'path/to/vendor/umd/stats-incr-nansumabs2/index.js' )

To include the bundle in a webpage,

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stdlib-js/stats-incr-nansumabs2@umd/browser.js"></script>

If no recognized module system is present, access bundle contents via the global scope:

<script type="text/javascript">
(function () {
    window.incrnansumabs2;
})();
</script>

incrnansumabs2()

Returns an accumulator function which incrementally computes a sum of squared absolute values, ignoring NaN values.

var accumulator = incrnansumabs2();

accumulator( [x] )

If provided an input value x, the accumulator function returns an updated sum. If not provided an input value x, the accumulator function returns the current sum.

var accumulator = incrnansumabs2();

var sum = accumulator( 2.0 );
// returns 4.0

sum = accumulator( -1.0 );
// returns 5.0

sum = accumulator( NaN );
// returns 5.0

sum = accumulator( -3.0 );
// returns 14.0

sum = accumulator();
// returns 14.0

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.
  • For long running accumulations or accumulations of large numbers, care should be taken to prevent overflow.
