Description
- This function gives the standard deviation based on a given sample.
- Standard deviation is a quantity expressing by how much the members of a group differ from the mean value for the group.
- It is the used as a measure of the dispersion or variation in a distribution.
- It is calculated as the square root of variance.
- In , are numbers to find the standard deviation.
- Here is required. are optional.
- Instead of numbers we can use the single array or a reference of a array.
- is defined by the formula: Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle S.D= \frac {\sqrt(\sum(x-\bar{x})}^2{(n-1)} } , where is the sample mean of and is the total numbers in the given data.
- It is calculated using Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle "n-1" } method.
- This function is considering our given data is the sample of the population.
- Suppose it should consider the data as the entire population, we can use the STDEVP function.
- The arguments can be be either numbers or names, array,constants or references that contain numbers.
- Suppose the array contains text,logical values or empty cells, like that values are not considered.
- When we are entering logical values and text representations of numbers as directly, then the arguments are counted.
- Suppose the function have to consider the logical values and text representations of numbers in a reference , we can use the STDEVA function.
- This function will return the result as error when

2. The arguments containing the error values or text that cannot be translated in to numbers.
STDEV(V1,V2,...)
Where V1,V2,......are arguments.
It calculates the Standard deviation for a set of values.
- S D is calculated by the "n-1" method.
- The Arguments can be numbers or names, arrays, or references.
- Empty cells, logical values, text, or error values are ignored.
- S D formula is:
Where x is the sample mean average (V1,V2........) and n is the sample size.
