Subject: Fwd: [SQL] aggregate function stddev

Folks,

Sending this remark to the list so that I/we don't forget to patch it .....

========================================
Just noticed that the postgres stddev is the stddev_sample formula.
There are two different ways to calculate this value.
Their difference is very small with large samle size.  It would be nice
to distinguish the two different versions.
