Hi Silas
The Docs team are responsible for producing the User Guides. I guess the
information you are requesting *could *be added to the relevant chapter
in the Calc guide *if* it was thought necessary to enhance the
understanding of users. That's not a decision in which I have an input.
The Help files and their index is not part of the documentation team's
remit. I don't know who deals with that I'm afraid.
The Insert Function dialogue is part of the programme UI and is dealt
with by the Development group. I believe, though I've never done it,
that you have to request a programme enhancement through the Bugzilla
system if you want something added like you have described.
I guess you're after something like this for the help files:
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/How_Tos/Calc:_STDEV_function
Sorry I can't be of further help.
Regards

Hi Silas
You can get a lot of information from here, in section 6.18:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/cs01/OpenDocument-v1.2-cs01-part2.html#__RefHeading__1018622_715980110
The "Semantics" part is exactly what I am looking for. A simple way of
making this info more available would be to add a link in the function
reference at
https://help.libreoffice.org/Calc/Functions_by_Category and in the
insert function dialog.
If there is interest in this, I could work on it.
I looked around in
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/help/tree/source/text/scalc
but I cant really figure out how it is organised, is there an
explanation of the directory/filenaming somewhere?
Best
Silas

Hi
Whenever I need a statistical function in Calc, it annoys me that I
cant see the definition.
F.ex is stddev corrected or uncorrected?
I would like to add definitions to the description that is displayed
in the function dialog.
Any thoughts on the idea and pointers to getting started is appreciated.
Best regards, Silas
