\textit{A. D. Booth} and \textit{I. J. M. Booth} [ibid. 77, No.2, 537-539 (1988; Zbl 0647.65100)] have given a method ``for updating means, variances and cross-products of pairs of variables, when more data become available''. The author presents a variation of their formula which is faster by avoiding the use of \(i/(i+1)\) terms.
