Functions and commands

For example:
=STAT1(A25:A37)

produces the following
default output.

However, if you just wanted
to see the number of data-
points, the mean, and the
standard deviation, you
would enter
=STAT1(A25:A37,”h n
x ”). What the

configuration string is
indicating here is that row headings are required (h), and just
the number of data-points (n), the mean (x), and the standard
deviation ().
