Quick summary

Compute mean, variance, and standard deviation (sample and population) from a list of numbers.

How to calculate standard deviation manually

  1. Population SD = √(Σ(x − x̄)² / n).
  2. Sample SD uses (n − 1) in the denominator.

Compute mean, variance, and standard deviation (sample and population) from a list of numbers.

How it works

Population SD = √(Σ(x − x̄)² / n). Sample SD uses (n − 1) in the denominator.

Example

{12, 18, 24, 9, 15, 21, 30, 14} → mean 17.875, sample SD ≈ 6.81.
