The following code computes the standard deviation of a list of n numbers. n = length(x); % x is a given n x 1 column vector. SUM = 0; for i = 1:n end SUM = SUM + x(i). AVG = SUM/n; VAR = 0; for i = 1:n end VAR STDEV = = VAR + (x(i)-AVG)^2; sqrt(VAR); % STDEV is the standard deviation of the entries of x. Compute the flop count of the code above. Only count arithmetic operations! The following code computes the standard deviation of a list of n numbers. n = length(x); % x is a given n x 1 column vector.
