VARA

Estimates variance based on a sample, including logical values and text. Text and the -false logical value have the value 0; the -true logical value has the value 1.

Syntax

expression.VARA(args);

expression - A variable that represents a ApiWorksheetFunction class.

Parameters

Name	Required/Optional	Data type	Default	Description
args	Required	number | string | boolean | (number | string | boolean)[] | ApiRange | ApiName		Up to 255 values for which the variance will be calculated. The first argument is required, subsequent arguments are optional. Arguments can be numbers, logical values or text representations of numbers, names, ranges, or arrays.

Returns

number

Example

• Code
• Result

let worksheet = Api.GetActiveSheet();

// Data array
let data = [
    [1, 0, 0, false],
    ["text", 1, 0, 0],
    [2, 3, true, 7],
    [6, 8, 10, 12]
];

// Place the data in cells A1:D4
for (let i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
    for (let j = 0; j < data[i].length; j++) {
        worksheet.GetRangeByNumber(i, j).SetValue(data[i][j]);
    }
}

// Calculate the letA of the range A1:D4 and place the result in cell E6
let func = Api.GetWorksheetFunction();
let letaResult = func.VARA(worksheet.GetRange("A1:D4"));
worksheet.GetRange("E6").SetValue(letaResult);
