# itermeanabs2
> Compute the [arithmetic mean][arithmetic-mean] of squared absolute values for all [iterated][mdn-iterator-protocol] values.
The [arithmetic mean][arithmetic-mean] of squared absolute values is defined as
## Usage
```javascript
var itermeanabs2 = require( '@stdlib/stats/iter/meanabs2' );
```
#### itermeanabs2( iterator )
Computes the [arithmetic mean][arithmetic-mean] of squared absolute values for all [iterated][mdn-iterator-protocol] values.
```javascript
var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array/to-iterator' );
var arr = array2iterator( [ 1.0, -2.0, -3.0, 4.0 ] );
var m = itermeanabs2( arr );
// returns 7.5
```
## Notes
- If an iterated value is non-numeric (including `NaN`), the returned [`iterator`][mdn-iterator-protocol] returns `NaN`. If non-numeric iterated values are possible, you are advised to provide an [`iterator`][mdn-iterator-protocol] which type checks and handles non-numeric values accordingly.
## Examples
```javascript
var runif = require( '@stdlib/random/iter/uniform' );
var itermeanabs2 = require( '@stdlib/stats/iter/meanabs2' );
// Create an iterator for generating uniformly distributed pseudorandom numbers:
var rand = runif( -10.0, 10.0, {
'seed': 1234,
'iter': 100
});
// Compute the arithmetic mean of squared absolute values:
var m = itermeanabs2( rand );
// returns
console.log( 'meanabs2: %d.', m );
