Standard Deviation

[Ken Cole]

Hi everyone,

I hope you are all doing well during covid.

Not being someone who likes to reinvent the wheel, has anyone
implemented a standard deviation function in filePro?

We have to implement a very detailed algorithm to calculate reorder
points for stock and the algorithm requires the use of the StdDev of
certain data sets like lead time and usage over time.

We run on RHEL servers so it may be an option to pass the data off to
a user function written in say Perl to do this and get it to return
the StdDev if we cannot do it within standard filePro.

Perl is not foreign to us as we use it liberally and I see we can use
a module Statistics::Basic::StdDev.

Thanks

Ken
