Binning data then taking stats on each bin

compuchemgeek
I know the WaveStats command can calculate the standard deviation (among other things), and one can also set the X range of the wave using /R=[startP, endP]. Having never programmed in Igor before, I'm not sure how to go about this programmatically, but I'm thinking of a placing the WaveStat command within a loop. Any help would be appreciated!
Your description is a bit confusing. You cannot calculate a standard deviation for a bin, whose value consists of a single number. You can calculate statistics on the entire Histogram wave.

Here is a solution:
There may be a faster way to get just the standard deviation but I could not identify it.
