## Usage
47+
48+
```javascript
49+
var incrmaape = require( '@stdlib/stats/incr/maape' );
50+
```
51+
52+
#### incrmaape()
53+
54+
Returns an accumulator `function` which incrementally computes the [mean arctangent absolute percentage error][@kim:2016a].
55+
56+
```javascript
57+
var accumulator = incrmaape();
58+
```
59+
60+
#### accumulator( \[f, a] )
61+
62+
If provided input values `f` and `a`, the accumulator function returns an updated [mean arctangent absolute percentage error][@kim:2016a]. If not provided input values `f` and `a`, the accumulator function returns the current [mean arctangent absolute percentage error][@kim:2016a].
63+
64+
```javascript
65+
var accumulator = incrmaape();
66+
67+
var m = accumulator( 2.0, 3.0 );
68+
// returns ~0.3218
69+
70+
m = accumulator( 1.0, 4.0 );
71+
// returns ~0.4826
72+
73+
m = accumulator( 3.0, 5.0 );
74+
// returns ~0.4486
75+
76+
m = accumulator();
77+
// returns ~0.4486
78+
```

85+
86+
## Notes
87+
88+
- 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.
89+
- Note that, unlike the [mean absolute percentage error][@stdlib/stats/incr/mape] (MAPE), the [mean arctangent absolute percentage error][@kim:2016a] is expressed in radians on the interval \[0,π/2].

110+
// Initialize an accumulator:

112+
113+
// For each simulated datum, update the mean arctangent absolute percentage error...
114+
for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
115+
v1 = ( randu()*100.0 ) + 50.0;
