in the help manual of STDEV, it is said that the calculation uses the
"unbiased" formula, but in fact the actual calculation uses the biased one,
i.e. sqrt( sum(xi-xavg)/N), instead of the intended: sqrt(
sum(xi-xavg)/(N-1)).
am i right? if so, please correct the help document, to avoid the confusion.
