IsEquivalent Method (StandardDeviationFunction)

Retrieves a value indicating whether a statistical function is the equivalent of the current function such that both will return the same result for the same set of values.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Protected Friend Overrides Function IsEquivalent( _
   ByVal statFunction As StatFunction _
) As Boolean

'Usage
 
Dim instance As StandardDeviationFunction
Dim statFunction As StatFunction
Dim value As Boolean
 
value = instance.IsEquivalent(statFunction)

protected internal override bool IsEquivalent( 
   StatFunction statFunction
)

Parameters

statFunction: The statistical function to verify.

Return Value

true of the specified statistical function is the equivalent of the current function; false otherwise.

Remarks

By default, this method verifies if the type of the statistical functions and that the values of the SourcePropertyName and IncludeNullValues properties are identical.

The IsEquivalent and GetEquivalenceKey methods are similar to the Equals and GetHashCode methods.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 11, Windows 10, Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
