  • If an input value is missing or null, it is not factored in the computation. For example, for the first row in the dataset, the rolling standard deviation of previous values is undefined.
  • The row from which to extract a value is determined by the order in which the rows are organized based on the order parameter. 

  • If you are working on a randomly generated sample of your dataset, the values that you see for this function might not correspond to the values that are generated on the full dataset during job execution.

  • The function takes a column name and two optional integer parameters that determine the window backward and forward of the current row.
    • The default integer parameter values are -1 and 0, which computes the rolling function from the current row back to the first row of the dataset.
  • This function works with the following transforms:Window transform. See Window Transform
  • Set Transform
  • Derive Transform.

rollingstdev(myNumber, 100)

Output:

Returns the rolling standard deviation of the current row and the 100 previous row values in the myNumber column.

Typesyntax
showNotetrue
WrangleTextwindow value:
rollingstdev(col_ref, rowsBefore_integer, rowsAfter_integer) order: order_col [group: group_col]

rollingstdev(col_ref, rowsBefore_integer, rowsAfter_integer) order: order_col [group: group_col]


ArgumentRequired?Data TypeDescription
col_refYstringName of column whose values are applied to the function
rowsBefore_integerNintegerNumber of rows before the current one to include in the computation
rowsAfter_integerNintegerNumber of rows after the current one to include in the computation

...

Integers representing the number of rows before or after the current one from which to compute the rolling function, including the current row. For example, if the first value is 5, the current row and the four rows five before after it are used in the computation. Negative  Negative values for krowsAfter_integer compute the rolling average function from rows preceding the current one.

  • rowBefore=10 generates the current row value only.
  • rowBefore=-1  uses all rows preceding the current one.
  • If rowsAfter is not specified, then the value 0 is applied.
  • If a group parameter is applied, then these parameter values should be no more than the maximum number of rows in the groups.
