{{task|Probability and statistics}}
Write a stateful function, class, generator or coroutine that takes a series of floating point numbers, ''one at a time'', and returns the running [[wp:Standard Deviation|standard deviation]] of the series. The task implementation should use the most natural programming style of those listed for the function in the implementation language; the task ''must'' state which is being used. Do not apply [[wp:Bessel's correction|Bessel's correction]]; the returned standard deviation should always be computed as if the sample seen so far is the entire population.

For maximum compatibility, this program uses only the basic instruction set.
Part of the code length is due to the square root algorithm and to the nice output.

===Old style, four ways===
real :: m
Early computers loaded the entire programme and its working storage into memory and left it there throughout the run. Uninitialised variables would start with whatever had been left in memory at their address by whatever last used those addresses, though some systems would clear all of memory to zero or possibly some other value before each load. Either way, if a routine was invoked a second time, its variables would have the values left in them by their previous invocation. The DATA statement allows initial values to be specified, and allows repeat counts when specifying such values as well. It is not an executable statement: it is not re-executed on second and subsequent invocations of the containing routine. Thus, it is easy to have a routine employ counters and the like, visible only within themselves and initialised to zero or whatever suited.
 
With more complex operating systems, routines that relied on retaining values across invocations might no longer work - perhaps a fresh version of the routine would be loaded to memory (perhaps at odd intervals), or, on exit, the working storage would be discarded. There was a half-way scheme, whereby variables that had appeared in DATA statements would be retained while the others would be discarded. This subtle indication has been discarded in favour of the explicit SAVE statement, naming those variables whose values are to be retained between invocations, though compilers might also offer an option such as "automatic" (for each invocation always allocate then discard working memory) and "static" (retain values), possibly introducing non-standard keywords as well. Otherwise, the routines would have to use storage global to them such as additional parameters, or, COMMON storage and in later Fortran, the MODULE arrangements for shared items. The persistence of such storage can still be limited, but by naming them in the main line can be ensured for the life of the run. The other routines with access to such storage could enable re-initialisation, additional reports, or multiple accumulations, etc.

Since the standard deviation can be calculated in a single pass through the data, producing values for the standard deviation of all values so far supplied is easily done without re-calculation. Accuracy is quite another matter. Calculations using deviances from a working mean are much better, and capturing the first X as the working mean would be easy, just test on N = 0. The sum and sum-of-squares method is quite capable of generating a negative variance, but the second method cannot, because the terms being added in to V are never negative. This is demonstrated by comparing the results computed from StdDev(A), StdDev(A + 10), StdDev(A + 100), StdDev(A + 1000), etc.
end function stat_object
 
Incidentally, Fortran implementations rarely enable re-entrancy for the WRITE statement, so, since here the functions are invoked in a WRITE statement, the functions cannot themselves use WRITE statements, say for debugging.

Speaking loosely, to square a number of d digits accurately requires the ability to represent 2d digits accurately, with more digits needed if many such squares are to be added together accurately. In this example, 1000 when squared, is pushing at the limits of single precision. The average&variance method is resistant to this problem (and does not generate negative variances either!) because it manipulates differences from the running average, but it is still better to use a working mean.
 
In other words, a two-pass method will be more accurate (where the second pass calculates the variance by accumulating deviations from the actual average, itself calculated with a working mean) but at the cost of that second pass and the saving of all the values. Higher precision variables for the accumulations are the easiest way towards accurate results.

====Observations from a file or array====
We first define a filter, "simulate", that, if given a file of
observations, will emit the standard deviations of the observations
seen so far.
The current state is stored in a JSON object, with this structure:
 
{ "n": _, "ssd": _, "mean": _ }
 
where "n" is the number of observations seen, "mean" is their average, and "ssd" is the sum of squared deviations about that mean.
 
The challenge here is to ensure accuracy for very large n, without sacrificing efficiency. The key idea in that regard is that if m is the mean of a series of n observations, x, we then have for any a:
 
SIGMA( (x - a)^2 ) == SIGMA( (x-m)^2 ) + n * (a-m)^2 == SSD + n*(a-m)^2
where SSD is the sum of squared deviations about the mean.
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="jq"># Compute the standard deviation of the observations
# seen so far, given the current state as input:

def update_state(observation):

The simple form is, computing only the standand deviation of the whole data set:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="matlab"> x = [2,4,4,4,5,5,7,9];
n = length (x);
 
m = mean (x);
x2 = mean (x .* x);
dev= sqrt (x2 - m * m)

When the intermediate results are also needed, one can use this vectorized form:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="matlab"> m = cumsum(x) ./ [1:n]; % running mean
x2= cumsum(x.^2) ./ [1:n]; % running squares
 
dev = sqrt(x2 - m .* m)

To compute the running sum, one must keep track of the number of items, the sum of values, and the sum of squares.
 
If the goal is to get a vector of running standard deviations, the simplest is to do it with cumsum:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="rsplus">cumsd <- function(x) {
n <- seq_along(x)
sqrt(cumsum(x^2) / n - (cumsum(x) / n)^2)
}
 
set.seed(12345L)
x <- rnorm(10)
 
cumsd(x)
# [1] 0.0000000 0.3380816 0.8752973 1.1783628 1.2345538 1.3757142 1.2867220 1.2229056 1.1665168 1.1096814
 
# Compare to the naive implementation, i.e. compute sd on each sublist:
Vectorize(function(k) sd(x[1:k]) * sqrt((k - 1) / k))(seq_along(x))
# [1] NA 0.3380816 0.8752973 1.1783628 1.2345538 1.3757142 1.2867220 1.2229056 1.1665168 1.1096814
# Note that the first is NA because sd is unbiased formula, hence there is a division by n-1, which is 0 for n=1.</syntaxhighlight>
 
The task requires an accumulator solution:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="rsplus">accumsd <- function() {
n <- 0
m <- 0
s <- 0
function(x) {
n <<- n + 1
m <<- m + x
s <<- s + x * x
sqrt(s / n - (m / n)^2)
}
}
 
f <- accumsd()
sapply(x, f)
# [1] 0.0000000 0.3380816 0.8752973 1.1783628 1.2345538 1.3757142 1.2867220 1.2229056 1.1665168 1.1096814</syntaxhighlight>

On the TI-83 family, standard deviation of a population is
a builtin function (σx):
• Press [STAT] select [EDIT] followed by [ENTER]
• then enter for list L1 in the table : 2, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 7, 9
• Or enter {2,4,4,4,5,5,7,9}→L1
• Press [STAT] select [CALC] then [1-Var Stats] select list L1 followed by [ENTER]
• Then σx (=2) gives the standard deviation of the population
