DEVSQ function

Sum of squared deviations from the mean. DEVSQ works in Sheets with the usual arguments and results, on cells and on live data from the tools you connect.

Syntax

=DEVSQ(number1, [number2, ...])
ArgumentUse
number1required, repeatable
number2optional, repeatable
required

On live data

In Sheets, DEVSQ sits next to live data from a connected tool: =data.orders.sum(total) totals a table, =list.orders(customer) spills a column's distinct values, and a linked table column such as table.orders[Total] is a range any function accepts.
