How do I calculate population standard deviation in JMP.

Created: Oct 14, 2019 03:42 PM  |  Last Modified: Oct 14, 2019 04:38 PM (3600 views)

When I use the distribution platform in JMP 14 the calculated standard deviation is the sample standard deviation.  How do I calculate the population standard deviation in JMP and when is it appropriate to use the polpulation standard deviation?

 

Thanks,
