# stddevSampStable
The result is equal to the square root of [varSamp](../../../sql-reference/aggregate-functions/reference/varsamp.md). Unlike [`stddevSamp`](../reference/stddevsamp.md) This function uses a numerically stable algorithm. It works slower but provides a lower computational error.
**Syntax**
```sql
stddevSampStable(x)
```
**Parameters**
- `x`: Values for which to find the square root of sample variance. [(U)Int*](../../data-types/int-uint.md), [Float*](../../data-types/float.md), [Decimal*](../../data-types/decimal.md).
**Returned value**
Square root of sample variance of `x`. [Float64](../../data-types/float.md).
**Example**
Query:
```sql
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS test_data;
CREATE TABLE test_data
(
population UInt8,
)
ENGINE = Log;
INSERT INTO test_data VALUES (3),(3),(3),(4),(4),(5),(5),(7),(11),(15);
SELECT
stddevSampStable(population)
FROM test_data;
```
Result:
```response
┌─stddevSampStable(population)─┐
│ 4 │
└──────────────────────────────┘
```
