> Compute a moving [mean error][mean-absolute-error] (ME) incrementally, ignoring `NaN` values.


<section class="intro">

For a window of size `W`, the [mean error][mean-absolute-error] is defined **ignoring any `(x, y)` pairs containing NaN**.

```math
\mathop{\mathrm{ME}} = \frac{1}{W} \sum_{i=0}^{W-1} (y_i - x_i)
```

<!-- <div class="equation" align="center" data-raw-text="\operatorname{ME} = \frac{1}{W} \sum_{i=0}^{W-1} (y_i - x_i)" data-equation="eq:mean_error">

## Usage

```javascript
var incrnanmme = require( '@stdlib/stats/incr/nanmme' );
```

#### incrnanmme( window )

Returns an accumulator `function` which incrementally computes a moving [mean error][mean-absolute-error], ignoring any `(x, y)` pairs containing `NaN`. The `window` parameter defines the number of values over which to compute the moving [mean error][mean-absolute-error].

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

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

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

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

var m = accumulator();
// returns null

// Fill the window...
m = accumulator( 2.0, 3.0 ); // [(2.0,3.0)]
// returns 1.0

m = accumulator( -1.0, 4.0 ); // [(2.0,3.0), (-1.0,4.0)]
// returns 3.0

m = accumulator( 3.0, NaN ); // ignored
// returns 3.0

// Window begins sliding...
m = accumulator( -7.0, 3.0 );
// returns 5.333333333333334

<section class="notes">

## Notes

- Input values are **not** type checked. Any `(x, y)` pair containing `NaN` is ignored and does **not** update the window.
- As `W` (x,y) pairs 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.
- Be careful when interpreting the [mean error][mean-absolute-error] as errors can cancel. This stated, that errors can cancel makes the [mean error][mean-absolute-error] suitable for measuring the bias in forecasts.
- **Warning**: the [mean error][mean-absolute-error] is scale-dependent and, thus, the measure should **not** be used to make comparisons between datasets having different scales.

```javascript

for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
v1 = ( randu()*100.0 ) - 50.0;
v2 = ( randu()*100.0 ) - 50.0;
accumulator( v1, v2 );

bench( format( '%s::accumulator-nan', pkg ), function benchmark( b ) {

According to current project conventions, we are moving away from string concatenation while specifying javascript benchmark names. Instead it is recommended to use @stdlib/string/format.
For more information, you can check out this reference: #8647

var v;
var i;

acc = incrnanmme( 5 );

b.tic();
for ( i = 0; i < b.iterations; i++ ) {
if ( i%10 === 0 ) {

} else {
v = acc( randu()-0.5, randu()-0.5 );
