Engineering Probability
Standard deviation is a statistical measure that quantifies the amount of variation or dispersion in a set of values. It helps to understand how spread out the numbers are in a dataset, indicating whether they are close to the mean or widely scattered. In probability and randomness, it is crucial for assessing risk, variability in random variables, and is essential in evaluating distributions such as normal and hypergeometric distributions.
