Hello group,

from an external tool I get as output a histogram with my measurment
values and their occurences (number of samples) during the whole
measurement.

I am now interested in the average and std. deviation of the
measurement values.

Do you know a function?


Thanks and best regards,
Jens

Have a look in the Excel Help menu under "Statistical
Functions".

.

For Average use
=SUMPRODUCT(values,occurences)/SUM(occurrences)
For standard deviation use
=SQRT(SUMPRODUCT((values-average)^2,occurrences)/(SUM(occurrences)-1))
