Method 3 : Using std.error() function( plotrix package)
This is the built-in function that directly calculated the standard error. It is available in plotrix package
Syntax: std.error(data)
Example: R program to calculate the standard error using std.error()
R
# import plotrix package library ( "plotrix" ) # consider a vector with 10 elements a <- c (179,160,136,227,123, 23,45,67,1,234) # calculate standard error using in built # function print ( std.error (a)) |
Output:

Calculate Standard Error in R
In this article, we are going to see how to calculate standard error in R Programming Language.
Mathematically we can calculate standard error by using the formula:
standard deviation/squareroot(n)
In R Language, we can calculate in these ways:
- Using sd() function with length function
- By using the standard error formula.
- Using plotrix package.
