Lesson 2 — Sample Standard Deviation

By


Standard deviation is a very important concept in statistics.

Why?  There are always variations regarding heights, weights, eye colors or some other characteristics among individuals.  No two individuals are exactly the same — even identical twins are not 100% the same in their genes.

(Recall that the term “individuals” include people, cats, dogs or anything whose characteristics a researcher is interested in exploring.)
