# itercuprod > Create an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] which iteratively computes a cumulative product.
The cumulative product is defined as
Equation for the cumulative product.
## Usage ```javascript var itercuprod = require( '@stdlib/stats/iter/cuprod' ); ``` #### itercuprod( iterator ) Returns an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] which iteratively computes a cumulative product. ```javascript var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array/to-iterator' ); var arr = array2iterator( [ 2.0, 1.0, 3.0, -7.0, -5.0 ] ); var it = itercuprod( arr ); var p = it.next().value; // returns 2.0 p = it.next().value; // returns 2.0 p = it.next().value; // returns 6.0 p = it.next().value; // returns -42.0 p = it.next().value; // returns 210.0 ```
## Notes - If an iterated value is non-numeric (including `NaN`), the function returns `NaN` for **all** future iterations. 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. - For [iterators][mdn-iterator-protocol] which can generate many values or which may output large numbers, care should be taken to prevent overflow.
## Examples ```javascript var runif = require( '@stdlib/random/iter/uniform' ); var itercuprod = require( '@stdlib/stats/iter/cuprod' ); // Create an iterator for generating uniformly distributed pseudorandom numbers: var rand = runif( -10.0, 10.0, { 'seed': 1234, 'iter': 100 }); // Create an iterator for iteratively computing a cumulative product: var it = itercuprod( rand ); // Perform manual iteration... var v; while ( true ) { v = it.next(); if ( typeof v.value === 'number' ) { console.log( 'prod: %d', v.value ); } if ( v.done ) { break; } } ```
