This function gives the average absolute deviation of a given set of numbers.
 
This function gives the average absolute deviation of a given set of numbers.
 
The Average deviation is calculated in three steps:
 
The Average deviation is calculated in three steps:
#We have to find the mean.
+
#We have to find the mean <math>\bar{x}</math>.
 
#To find the deviation of each value, subtract all numbers with its mean value.
 
#To find the deviation of each value, subtract all numbers with its mean value.
 
#Then find the average deviation, add all the deviation values and divide by the number of given set of numbers.
 
#Then find the average deviation, add all the deviation values and divide by the number of given set of numbers.

<math> AVERAGE DEVIATION=SUMMATION(I=1 TO N)xi-x(bar)[mean]/n<math>. Here xi is the observation,x(bar) is the mean and n is the number of given set of observations.Here we have to give more than one arguments and arguments can be either numbers , names,logical values, arrays or cell refercences that contain numbers.This function will give the result as error,when the text couldn't convert in to numbers.
