About DSTDEV Excel Function
The Excel DSTDEV function calculates the standard deviation of a sample based on a supplied population of numbers. The standard deviation is a measure of how spread out the data is. A low standard deviation means that the data is close to the mean (average) value, while a high standard deviation means that the data is more spread out.
