The STDEV function is used to calculate the Standard Deviation based on a sample. Note: Standard Deviation is a measure that shows how much variation of values exists from the average (mean).
Formula:
=STDEV(Number 1, Number 2, up to Number 255) Whereas "Number1, number2, ...number 255" are numbers corresponding to a sample of a population.
