Name

STDEVA

Synopsis

Use STDEVA to estimate the standard deviation by measuring how far the specified numeric values are dispersed from the mean. A logical value of TRUE is evaluated as 1. A logical value of FALSE or a text value is evaluated as 0.

To Calculate

=STDEVA(Value1, Value2, ...)

There must be at least one Value argument specified for this function.

Example

Figure 15-44 illustrates how to use STDEVA to find the standard deviation of a list of values. Since the list includes two logical values, those values are evaluated as part of the standard deviation.
