Implementation in Software

Latest comment: 9 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I came to this page to see how to implement a simple standard deviation method in software, but this article really isn't helpful for that task. Using the formulas here, I would have to make two passes. I know there's a formula that can do it in a single pass, and this article should include a section on that. We live in a software-driven world. Students of software will be coming to this page. We need to support them. MiguelMunoz (talk) 04:40, 27 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
