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.
