popsd

a numeric vector or an R object which is coercible to one by <code>as.vector(x, "numeric")</code>.

logical. Should missing values be removed?

na.rm

Returns the population variance. Note that <code><a href="/link/sd?package=rafalib&version=1.0.0" data-mini-rdoc="rafalib::sd">sd</a></code> returns
the unbiased sample estimate of the population varaince.
It simply multiplies the result of <code><a href="/link/var?package=rafalib&version=1.0.0" data-mini-rdoc="rafalib::var">var</a></code> by (n-1) / n with n
the populaton size and takes the square root.

A series of shortcuts for routine tasks originally developed by Rafael A. Irizarry to facilitate data exploration.
