Formula Generator - STDEVPA function
The STDEVPA function calculates the standard deviation of a population. It considers both numeric and text values, treating text values as 0 in the calculation.How to generate an STDEVPA formula using AI.
To get the STDEVPA formula for your data, you can ask the AI chatbot the following question: "What is the formula to calculate the population standard deviation in Excel?"
STDEVPA formula syntax.
The STDEVPA function in Excel calculates the standard deviation for a population based on a sample of data. The syntax for the function is: STDEVPA(number1, [number2], ...) - number1, number2, ...: These are the values or cell references that represent the sample data. You can include up to 255 arguments. The function calculates the standard deviation using the "n" method, where the divisor is the number of data points in the sample. It includes both numeric and logical values in the calculation, while ignoring empty cells, text, or cells with logical values. The result of the function is a measure of how spread out the data is from the average (mean) value. It is useful for analyzing data sets to understand the variability and dispersion of the values.
