How would I calculate standard deviation of a csv file? Any code
examples would be great!

Thank you!
 
Hi,

Code for this is fairly straight forward (naturally, you have to read the
CSV file into some sort of structure, the do the arithmetic); any Statistics
book, or Wikapedia, with give you the actual steps that you can translate
into code. However, there is a free library that you might want to look at:

There probably are others -- this is one that I have seen.

There are a couple .NET math libraries out there.

Also take a look at "FileHelpers Library". It's an open source text file
parsing library. Lots of helper classes to parse CSV files.
