FAQ
What is Variance?
Variance is the average of squared differences from the mean. Formula: σ² = Σ(xi-μ)²/n
What does large variance indicate?
Larger variance indicates more dispersed data; smaller variance indicates more concentrated data
What's the relationship between variance and standard deviation?
Standard deviation is the square root of variance. Standard deviation has the same unit as original data and is easier to understand than variance
