Std

Return the standard deviation of values of matrix/vector elements or of elements along the given axis.

double vector::Std();

double matrix::Std();

vector matrix::Std(
const int axis // axis
);

Parameters

axis

[in] Axis. 0 — horizontal axis, 1 — vertical axis.

Return Value

Standard_deviation: scalar or vector.

Note

The standard deviation is the square root of the average of the squared deviations from the mean, i. e., std = sqrt(mean(x)), where x = abs(a - a.mean())**2.

The average squared deviation is typically calculated as x.sum() / N, where N = len(x).

Example

   matrixf matrix_a={{10,3,2},{1,8,12},{6,5,4},{7,11,9}};
   Print("matrix_a\n",matrix_a);

   vectorf cols_std=matrix_a.Std(0);
   vectorf rows_std=matrix_a.Std(1);
   float matrix_std=matrix_a.Std();

   Print("cols_std ",cols_std);
   Print("rows_std ",rows_std);
   Print("std value  ",matrix_std);
