Population standard deviation: stddev_pop

Syntax

• Aggregate syntax

in a Data Set expression	stddev_pop ( dataset { groupingClause } )
in a Component expression within an aggr clause	stddev_pop ( component ) { groupingClause }

• Analytic syntax

in a Data Set expression	stddev_pop ( dataset over ( analyticClause ) )
in a Component expression within a calc clause	stddev_pop ( component over ( analyticClause ) )

Input parameters

dataset	the operand Data Set
component	the operand Component
groupingClause	see Aggregate invocation
analyticClause	see Analytic invocation

Semantics for scalar operations

This operator cannot be applied to scalar values.

Input parameters type

dataset

dataset { measure<number> _+ }

component

component<number>

Result type

result

dataset { measure<number> _+ }
| component<number>

Additional Constraints

None.

Behaviour

The operator returns the “population standard deviation” of the input values. For other details, see Aggregate and Analytic invocations.
