Calculate Standard deviation in table

29 views (last 30 days)
Hi,
I have a table with 20 columns, I want to make a new column with the standard deviation of each row from column 4 to 6.
So after column 6 i want to have a column with the stdev of all rows of column 4:6.
How can I do that?

a = array2table(rand(5,8)) % Sample table
a = 5×8 table

If you want to calculate the standard deviation of the whole table:
For example "cax" is table.
1.6424 5.2601 1.4691 0.7361 0.2771
1.0531 0.5722 1.8804 4.9636 0.9451
1.8084 1.6537 1.5916 0.8352 0.7740
0.7550 1.4221 1.7003 2.5646 0.4272
2.2935 2.5158 0.7656 1.0110 2.0810
1.0765 0.5390 1.9687 2.0829 0.4572
1.0493 1.4736 1.2810 1.0911 0.2073
2.1630 0.5679 2.8582 1.6006 0.4746
1.1625 0.7333 0.2623 0.6887 0.7897
2.9148 0.2886 3.1662 0.3645 0.5730
std(cax,[],'all')
ans =
1.0786e+03
