[PATCH 4.11 38/78] staging: iio: tsl2x7x_core: Fix standard deviation calculation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.11-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eva Rachel Retuya <eraretuya@xxxxxxxxx>

commit cf6c77323a96fc40309cc8a4921ef206cccdd961 upstream.

Standard deviation is calculated as the square root of the variance
where variance is the mean of sample_sum and length. Correct the
computation of statP->stddev in accordance to the proper calculation.
