Hey, I double checked with: https://www.easycalculation.com/statistics/standard-deviation.php
this is the correct way to get mean and sd using for loops.
Although I'm using different values (I was assigned a similar problem) the method should work for any set.
n=6; %number of terms
MEAN=0;
for x=[1 3 4 8 10 15] %given values
spec = x/n;
MEAN = spec+MEAN;
end
SUM=0;
for x=[1 3 4 8 10 15]
difference = (x-MEAN)^2;
SUM = difference + SUM;
end
SD = sqrt(SUM/(n-1));
fprintf('Mean = %g\nSD = %g',MEAN,SD)
