Hello everybody,
For this matrix
M = [1 2; 3 4];
if we compute the its standard deviation
std(M(:))
then we obtain 1.2910, while by definition, it should be 1.1180. Why is there such a difference?
Thank you for your help.

The 1.2910 value is the unbiased standard deviation which is default while the 1.1118 value is the second moment. Read the documentation for 'std' at:
