Statistical Calculations
■Standard deviation
•Standard deviation calculations are performed in the SD1 mode ( g Q ) . “ SD1 ”
appears on the display.
•Before beginning calculations, the statistical memories are cleared by pressing
¡shift) followed by HD and then (g).
•Individual data are input using (d t).
•Multiple data of the same value can be input either by repeatedly pressing (dt)
o r by entering the data, pressing S , followed by C D , that represents the number
o f times the data is repeated, and then (d t).

and can be obtained by pressing H followed by the memory name and then dl)
