Standard Deviation - StdDev #287

Closed femtotrader closed 3 months ago

femtotrader commented 4 months ago

Hello,

currently OnlineStats provides Variance but not standard deviation (StdDev). Maybe it could be worth adding such a statistics (probably on top of Variance)

Kind regards

I never added it since std(value(var)) is convenient enough. I don't think it's worth the additional code to maintain.
