Mean and Standard deviation
Hi all,
I am new to shell scripting and wanna calculate the mean and standard deviation using shell programming.
I have a file with letters that are repeating and their corresponding duration
a 0.32
a 0.89
aa 0.34
aa 0.23
au 0.012
au 0.26
SIL 0.34
ai 0.9
b 0.29
bh 0.19
ssil 0.87
I want to calculate the mean and standard deviation for each letter. I am able to calculate for single letter, but cant do for whole date at a time.
grep -e '^a' file | grep -v 'aa'|grep -v 'ai'|grep -v 'au' > test.file
awk '{sum+=$2}END{print "Mean = ",sum/NR}' test.file
Thanks in advance.

Hi I want to use awk to print avg and st deviation but it does not go into a file for column 1 only.
