     44 ## Usage
     45 
     46 ```javascript
     47 var incrrmse = require( '@stdlib/stats/incr/rmse' );
     48 ```
     49 
     50 #### incrrmse()
     51 
     52 Returns an accumulator `function` which incrementally computes the [root mean squared error][root-mean-squared-error].
     53 
     54 ```javascript
     55 var accumulator = incrrmse();
     56 ```
     57 
     58 #### accumulator( \[x, y] )
     59 
     60 If provided input values `x` and `y`, the accumulator function returns an updated [root mean squared error][root-mean-squared-error]. If not provided input values `x` and `y`, the accumulator function returns the current [root mean squared error][root-mean-squared-error].
     61 
     62 ```javascript
     63 var accumulator = incrrmse();
     64 
     65 var r = accumulator( 2.0, 3.0 );
     66 // returns 1.0
     67 
     68 r = accumulator( -1.0, -4.0 );
     69 // returns ~2.24
     70 
     71 r = accumulator( -3.0, 5.0 );
     72 // returns ~4.97
     73 
     74 r = accumulator();
     75 // returns ~4.97
     76 ```

     84 ## Notes
     85 
     86 -   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.
