     21 # incrmin
     22 
     23 > Compute a minimum value incrementally.
     24 
     25 <section class="usage">
     26 
     27 ## Usage
     28 
     29 ```javascript
     30 var incrmin = require( '@stdlib/stats/incr/min' );
     31 ```
     32 
     33 #### incrmin()
     34 
     35 Returns an accumulator `function` which incrementally computes a minimum value.
     36 
     37 ```javascript
     38 var accumulator = incrmin();
     39 ```
     40 
     41 #### accumulator( \[x] )
     42 
     43 If provided an input value `x`, the accumulator function returns an updated minimum value. If not provided an input value `x`, the accumulator function returns the current minimum value.
     44 
     45 ```javascript
     46 var accumulator = incrmin();
     47 
     48 var min = accumulator( 2.0 );
     49 // returns 2.0
     50 
     51 min = accumulator( 1.0 );
     52 // returns 1.0
     53 
     54 min = accumulator( 3.0 );
     55 // returns 1.0
     56 
     57 min = accumulator();
     58 // returns 1.0
     59 ```

     67 ## Notes
     68 
     69 -   Input values are **not** type checked. If provided `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.
