Standard Deviation: A statistical measure of spread or variability. Computed as the root mean square (RMS) deviation of the values from their arithmetic mean.

Variance: The square of the standard deviation.

STDEV, sample of a largerpopulation

STDEVP, entire population

Your simulated spectrum will be the sum of the Gaussian functions that describe the absorbances of the three species: -- protonated dye-- neutral dye, and -- deprotonated dye.

(X,Y) Data QF: Types of Errors

The precise function was y = x2

The sample data were computed with: y = [x+0.3*RAND()]2 The x-values were assumed to be error-free

The fitted function was: y = 0.9937x2+ 0.3459xThe STDEV of the y-values is 0.62

Systematic error: All numbersin the sample will be too high!

Systematic error: There should not be a linear term.

This is were you notice the systematic error made (on purpose) in the sample data generation!
