Question 1194641: Johnny was fishing Bass and caught these 5 fish.
Fish lengths: 4, 6, 7, 8, 10
The mean is 7.0, based on his catches he calculates an estimated Standard deviation, called the Sample Standard Deviation is

Standard deviation is the spread of a group of numbers from the mean. The variance measures the average degree to which each point differs from the mean. While standard deviation is the square root of the variance, variance is the average of all data points within a group.
Variance: Bessel's correction is the use of instead of in the formula for the sample variance and sample standard deviation
