# Introduction In this lab, you will learn how to calculate the standard deviation of a dataset in C programming. The lab covers three main steps: computing the mean of the dataset, summing the squared deviations from the mean to calculate the variance, and then taking the square root to obtain the standard deviation. By the end of this lab, you will have a solid understanding of these fundamental statistical concepts and how to implement them in C. The lab provides step-by-step instructions and sample code to guide you through the process. You will start by writing a C program to calculate the mean of a given dataset, then extend the program to compute the variance by summing the squared deviations from the mean. Finally, you will take the square root of the variance to determine the standard deviation and print the result.
