Problem Statement

Write a stateful function, class, generator or co-routine that takes a series of floating point numbers, one at a time, and returns the running 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 Bessel's correction; the returned standard deviation should always be computed as if the sample seen so far is the entire population.

Use this to compute the standard deviation of this demonstration set,

{ 2 , 4 , 4 , 4 , 5 , 5 , 7 , 9 }

{\displaystyle {2,4,4,4,5,5,7,9}}

, which is

2

{\displaystyle 2}

.

Let's start with the solution:

0	П4	П5	П6	С/П	П0	ИП5	+	П5	ИП0
x^2	ИП6	+	П6	КИП4	ИП6	ИП4	/	ИП5	ИП4
/	x^2	-	КвКор	БП	04
