Returns the population variance of the values in a data set.
VARP(list)
Calculates the population variance of the values in the list, which may be an array, a range of cells, or a comma-separated list of values.
The equation used is:
(n·Σi=n (xi2) − (Σi=n xi)2) ÷ n2
where xi is each value and n is the number of values.
Example:
VARP(A1:A15)
returns the population variance of those cells in the range A1
to A15
