C Program to Calculate Standard Deviation

To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of the following C programming topics:

This program calculates the standard deviation of an individual series using arrays. Visit this page to learn about Standard Deviation.

To calculate the standard deviation, we have created a function named calculateSD().

Example: Population Standard Deviation

Output 

Enter 10 elements: 1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10

Standard Deviation = 2.872281

Here, the array containing 10 elements is passed to the calculateSD() function. The function calculates the standard deviation using mean and returns it.

Note: The program calculates the standard deviation of a population. If you need to find the standard deviation of a sample, the formula is slightly different.
