Note that there are various nan stat functions:

- `nanmin` -- minimum non-NaN value
- `nanmax` -- maximum non-NaN value
- `nanargmin` -- index of minimum non-NaN value
- `nanargmax` -- index of maximum non-NaN value
- `nansum` -- sum of non-NaN values
- `nanprod` -- product of non-NaN values
- `nancumsum` -- cumulative sum of non-NaN values
- `nancumprod` -- cumulative product of non-NaN values
- `nanmean` -- mean of non-NaN values
- `nanvar` -- variance of non-NaN values
- `nanstd` -- standard deviation of non-NaN values
- `nanmedian` -- median of non-NaN values
- `nanquantile` -- qth quantile of non-NaN values
- `nanpercentile` -- qth percentile of non-NaN values
