Excel square root and standard deviation
Em
Is there any way that you can have just one formula for standard deviation? e.g. the first sum to find the total of the numbers squared devided by the number of units
=SUM(1*B6+4*C6+9*D6+16*E6+25*F6+36*G6)/H6-1
Call this A2
then the 2nd sum to find the square root e.g =SQRT(A2)
is there anyway of combining the 2?
