nanstdev
standard deviation (ignoring the NANs).
Calling Sequence
s=nanstdev(x) s=nanstdev(x,'r') or m=nanstdev(x,1) s=nanstdev(x,'c') or m=nanstdev(x,2)
Arguments
- x
- real or complex vector or matrix 
Description
This function   computes the standard  deviation  of the
            values of  a vector or  matrix   x (ignoring  the
            NANs).
For a vector or a matrix x, s=nanstdev(x)
            returns in the scalar  s the  standard deviation
            of all the entries of x (ignoring the NANs).
s=nanstdev(x,'r')        (or,  equivalently,  
            s=nanstdev(x,1)) is  the rowwise standard deviation.
            It returns in each entry of the row  vector s the
            standard deviation of each column of x (ignoring
            the NANs).
s=nanstdev(x,'c')          (or,      equivalently,
            s=nanstdev(x,2))   is the columnwise      standard
            deviation. It returns in each entry of the column vector
            s the standard  deviation of  each row of  x
            (ignoring the NANs).
In Labostat, NAN values stand for missing values in tables.
Examples
x=[0.2113249 0.0002211 0.6653811; 0.7560439 %nan 0.6283918; 0.3 0.2 0.5 ]; s=nanstdev(x) s=nanstdev(x,'r') s=nanstdev(x,'c')
