elementName
The name of the element which will be displayed on the chart, i.e. its label.
s
A statistical series.
Calculates the sample standard variance of the series's elements YValues.

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Public Overloads Shared Function StandardDeviation( _
   ByVal elementName As String, _
   ByVal s As Series _
) As Element
Visual Basic (Usage)Copy Code
Dim elementName As String
Dim s As Series
Dim value As Element
 
value = StatisticalEngine.StandardDeviation(elementName, s)
C# 
public static Element StandardDeviation( 
   string elementName,
   Series s
)

Parameters

elementName
The name of the element which will be displayed on the chart, i.e. its label.
s
A statistical series.

Remarks

Remark: The units of the Sample Standard Deviation will correspond to the units used by the observations (i.e. the units of the members of the data set). In many instances it is convenient that the units used for the observations corresponds to the units used for a measure of the sets deviations. This differs from the Variance in which the deviation is measured in units which are the squares of the units of the observations.
