5. Drawing multiple graphs using the list function
Using list items as coordinates, you can simultaneously draw multiple graphs.
stdDv( list [, frequency list] )
Returns the standard deviation of the specified list items.
Example
• Calculate the standard
deviation using the list items
of list L2.
varian( list [, frequency list] )
Returns the variance of the specified list items.
Example
• Calculate the variance using
the list items of list L2.
