## Usage
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
var incrsum = require( '@stdlib/stats/incr/sum' );
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### incrsum()
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Returns an accumulator `function` which incrementally computes a sum.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
var accumulator = incrsum();
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### 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.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
var accumulator = incrsum();
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
var sum = accumulator( 2.0 );
|
|||
|
// returns 2.0
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
sum = accumulator( 1.0 );
|
|||
|
// returns 3.0
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
sum = accumulator( 3.0 );
|
|||
|
// returns 6.0
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
sum = accumulator();
|
|||
|
// returns 6.0
|
|||
|
```

## Notes
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- Input values are **not** type checked. If provided `NaN` or a value which, when used in computations, results in `NaN`, the accumulated value is `NaN` for **all** future invocations. 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.
