In this lesson, you will learn how to find the standard deviation and the mean average deviation of a data set. We will also learn how to interpret the results. The mean of the data is a measure of the center of the data set. The standard deviation and the mean average deviation (MAD) tell us, on average, how spread the data is about the mean. It tells is the range about the mean where most of the data lies.
