Hi,
I have the following compile error instantiated from here, I appreciate
if someone can help me find out why?


g++ -O0 -g3 -Wall -c -fmessage-length=0 -ostddev.o ../stddev.cpp
.../stddev.cpp: In member function 'int
StatUtils::std_dev(std::vector<int, std::allocator<int> >&, int,

Here is the code :


template< class T1> class do_std_dev : public binary_function<T1, T1,
T1>
{
public:
do_std_dev(T1 mean): _mean(mean) { }

T1 operator() (T1 initial, T1 element) {
T1 x = element - _mean;
initial = initial + (x * x);
return initial;
}
private:
T1 _mean;
};

int StatUtils::std_dev( vector<int>& v, int start, int end)
{
int stdDev = 0.0;
int mean2 = mean(v, start, end);
vector<int>::iterator startIter = v.begin();
vector<int>::iterator endIter = v.begin();

startIter += start;
endIter += end;

// this is line 215 of stddev.cpp:
int stdDevSum = accumulate (startIter, endIter, 0.0,
do_std_dev<int>(mean2));

return stdDevSum;
}

I recommend you provide a complete minimal example without any
conversion-from-int-to-double-issue. Focus e.g. on int first. As far
as I see the conversion is of no relevance for the
standard-deviation-feature you want to have. Maybe clearing the
conversion-issue already leads to a working program.

Look at the template for accumulate and remember that "0.0" is a double
whereas "0" is an int. What type does accumulate return?
