/**
* Returns an accumulator function which incrementally computes a harmonic mean.
*
* ## Method
*
* - The harmonic mean of positive real numbers \\(x_0, x_1, \ldots, x_{n-1}\\) is defined as
*
* ```tex
* \begin{align*}
* H &= \frac{n}{\frac{1}{x_0} + \frac{1}{x_1} + \cdots + \frac{1}{x_{n-1}}} \\
* &= \frac{n}{\sum_{i=0}^{n-1} \frac{1}{x_i}}
* \end{align*}
* ```
*
* which may be expressed
*
* ```tex
* H = \biggl( \frac{\sum_{i=0}^{n-1} \frac{1}{x_i}}{n} \biggr)^{-1}
* ```
*
* - Accordingly, to compute the harmonic mean incrementally, we can simply compute the arithmetic mean of reciprocal values and then compute the reciprocal of the result.
*
* @returns {Function} accumulator function
*
* @example
* var accumulator = incrhmean();
*
* var v = accumulator();
* // returns null
*
* v = accumulator( 2.0 );
* // returns 2.0
*
* v = accumulator( 5.0 );
* // returns ~2.86
*
* v = accumulator();
* // returns ~2.86
