Standard deviation may be abbreviated SD, and is most commonly represented in mathematical texts and equations by the lowercase Greek letter σ (sigma), for the population standard deviation, or the Latin letter s, for the sample standard deviation.
Learn how to calculate the standard deviation of a set of numbers using the symbol σ (sigma) and the formula σ = √(∑(x - μ)2/n). Find out the difference between population and sample standard deviation and see examples and exercises.
Learn how to calculate the standard deviation of a set of numbers using the formula σ = √ (∑ (x - μ)2 / N). The symbol σ (sigma) represents the standard deviation of a population, and s represents the standard deviation of a sample.
Learn how to calculate and interpret standard deviation, a measure of variation, using the symbol σ for population and s for sample. See examples, formulas, and histograms with standard deviations.
