About stdlib...
We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.
The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.
When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.
To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!
Compute a moving maximum absolute value incrementally.
npm install @stdlib/stats-incr-mmaxabsAlternatively,
- To load the package in a website via a
scripttag without installation and bundlers, use the ES Module available on theesmbranch (see README). - If you are using Deno, visit the
denobranch (see README for usage intructions). - For use in Observable, or in browser/node environments, use the Universal Module Definition (UMD) build available on the
umdbranch (see README).
The branches.md file summarizes the available branches and displays a diagram illustrating their relationships.
To view installation and usage instructions specific to each branch build, be sure to explicitly navigate to the respective README files on each branch, as linked to above.
var incrmmaxabs = require( '@stdlib/stats-incr-mmaxabs' );Returns an accumulator function which incrementally computes a moving maximum absolute value. The window parameter defines the number of values over which to compute the moving maximum absolute value.
var accumulator = incrmmaxabs( 3 );If provided an input value x, the accumulator function returns an updated maximum absolute value. If not provided an input value x, the accumulator function returns the current maximum absolute value.
var accumulator = incrmmaxabs( 3 );
var m = accumulator();
// returns null
// Fill the window...
m = accumulator( 2.0 ); // [2.0]
// returns 2.0
m = accumulator( 1.0 ); // [2.0, 1.0]
// returns 2.0
m = accumulator( 3.0 ); // [2.0, 1.0, 3.0]
// returns 3.0
// Window begins sliding...
m = accumulator( -7.0 ); // [1.0, 3.0, -7.0]
// returns 7.0
m = accumulator( -5.0 ); // [3.0, -7.0, -5.0]
// returns 7.0
m = accumulator();
// returns 7.0- Input values are not type checked. If provided
NaN, the accumulated value isNaNfor at leastW-1future invocations. If non-numeric inputs are possible, you are advised to type check and handle accordingly before passing the value to the accumulator function. - As
Wvalues are needed to fill the window buffer, the firstW-1returned values are calculated from smaller sample sizes. Until the window is full, each returned value is calculated from all provided values.
var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-base-randu' );
var incrmmaxabs = require( '@stdlib/stats-incr-mmaxabs' );
var accumulator;
var v;
var i;
// Initialize an accumulator:
accumulator = incrmmaxabs( 5 );
// For each simulated datum, update the moving maximum absolute value...
for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
v = ( randu()*100.0 ) - 50.0;
accumulator( v );
}

This package is part of stdlib, a standard library for JavaScript and Node.js, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computing. The library provides a collection of robust, high performance libraries for mathematics, statistics, streams, utilities, and more.
