  3. In statistics, the standard deviation is a measure of the amount of variation of a random variable expected about its mean. [1] . A low standard deviation indicates that the values tend to be close to the mean (also called the expected value) of the set, while a high standard deviation indicates that the values are spread out over a wider range.

  4. Learn what the standard deviation (SD) is, how it measures the variability in a dataset, and how to calculate it by hand. See examples, graphs, and formulas for the sample and population SD.

  5. Sep 17, 2020 · Standard deviation is the average amount of variability in a dataset. It tells you how far each value lies from the mean. Learn how to calculate it for populations and samples, and see examples and formulas.

  6. Standard deviation is a measure of how spread out a set of numbers is from the mean. Learn how to calculate it for a population or a sample, and how to use the empirical rule to estimate the proportion of data within a certain range of standard deviations.

  7. Learn how to calculate and interpret the standard deviation and variance of a set of data. The standard deviation measures how spread out the data is from the mean, while the variance is the average of the squared differences from the mean.

  8. Learn how to compute standard deviation by hand using a formula that involves finding the mean, the distance from each data point to the mean, and the sum of the squares of those distances. Follow an interactive example with a small data set and practice on your own with another data set.
