'''Standard deviation''' is a measure in [[statistics]] of the [[dispersion]] of a set of values (represented as <math>X</math>). It is defined as the square root of the [[variance:Probability and Statistics|variance]] of these values, where variance is defined as | '''Standard deviation''' is a measure in [[statistics]] of the [[dispersion]] of a set of values (represented as <math>X</math>).
