STDEVSAMPIF Function

Generates the standard deviation of values by group in a column that meet a specific condition using the sample statistical method.

Nota

When added to a transform, this function is applied to the sample in the data grid. If you change your sample or run the job, the computed values for this function are updated. Transforms that change the number of rows in subsequent recipe steps do not affect the values computed for this step.

Nota

This function applies to a sample of the entire population. More information is below.

Basic Usage

<span>stdevsampif</span>(testScores, testScores > 0)

Output: Returns the standard deviation of thetestScores column when thetestScores value is greater than 0.

Syntax and Arguments

stdevsampif(col_ref, test_expression) [group:group_col_ref] [limit:limit_count]

Argument	Required?	Data Type	Description
col_ref	Y	string	Reference to the column you wish to evaluate.
test_expression	Y	string	Expression that is evaluated. Must resolve to `true` or `false`

For more information on syntax standards, see Language Documentation Syntax Notes.

For more information on the group and limit parameters, see Pivot Transform.

col_ref

Name of the column whose values you wish to use in the calculation. Column must be a numeric (Integer or Decimal) type.

Usage Notes:

Required?	Data Type	Example Value
Yes	String that corresponds to the name of the column	myValues

test_expression

This parameter contains the expression to evaluate. This expression must resolve to a Boolean (true or false) value.

Usage Notes:

Required?	Data Type	Example Value
Yes	String expression that evaluates to `true` or `false`	(LastName == 'Mouse' && FirstName == 'Mickey')

This example shows some of the statistical functions that use the sample method of computation.

Functions:

Item	Description
STDEVSAMP Function	Computes the standard deviation across column values of Integer or Decimal type using the sample statistical method.
VARSAMP Function	Computes the variance among all values in a column using the sample statistical method. Input column can be of Integer or Decimal. If no numeric values are detected in the input column, the function returns `0`.
STDEVSAMPIF Function	Generates the standard deviation of values by group in a column that meet a specific condition using the sample statistical method.
VARSAMPIF Function	Generates the variance of values by group in a column that meet a specific condition using the sample statistical method.
ROUND Function	Rounds input value to the nearest integer. Input can be an Integer, a Decimal, a column reference, or an expression. Optional second argument can be used to specify the number of digits to which to round.

Transformation:

You can use the following transformations to calculate standard deviation and variance across all dates using the sample method. Each computation has been rounded to three digits.

Transformation Name	`New formula`
Parameter: Formula type	Single row formula
Parameter: Formula	round(stdevsamp(Score), 3)
Parameter: New column name	'stdevSamp'

Transformation Name	`New formula`
Parameter: Formula type	Single row formula
Parameter: Formula	round(varsamp(Score), 3)
Parameter: New column name	'varSamp'

You can use the following to limit the previous statistical computations to the last two Saturdays of testing:

Transformation Name	`New formula`
Parameter: Formula type	Single row formula
Parameter: Formula	round(stdevsampif(Score, Date != '11\/9\/2019'), 3)
Parameter: New column name	'stdevSampIf'

Transformation Name	`New formula`
Parameter: Formula type	Single row formula
Parameter: Formula	round(varsampif(Score, Date != '11\/9\/2019'), 3)
Parameter: New column name	'varSampIf'
