Statistics::Basic::Variance.3pm

NAME

Statistics::Basic::Variance - find the variance of an array

SYNOPSIS

Invoke it this way:

     my $variance = variance(1,2,3);
 
 

Or this way:

     my $v1  = vector(1,2,3);
     my $var = var($v1);
 
 

And then either query the values or print them like so:

     print "The variance of $v1: $variance\n";
     my $vq = $var->query;
     my $v0 = 0+$var;
 
 

Create a 20 point ``moving'' variance like so:

     my $sth = $dbh->prepare("select col1 from data where something");
     my $len = 20;
     my $var = var();
        $var->set_size($len);
 
     $sth->execute or die $dbh->errstr;
     $sth->bind_columns( my $val ) or die $dbh->errstr;
 
     my $count = $len;
     while( $sth->fetch ) {
 
         $var->insert( $val );
         if( -- $count <= 0 ) {
             print "Variance: $var\n";
         }
     }
 
 

The full details are probably in the base module. If you have questions, just let me know.
