I want to calculate =STDEV.P(A1:A24). The answer is #N/A.
What is the correct formula, considering I need to calculate the standard deviation in one range? I don't want to write: =STDEV.P(A1:A9;A11:A24)
Solution 1:[1]
Use this array formula:
=STDEV.P(IF(NOT(ISERROR(A1:A24)),A1:A24))
Being an array formula it must be confirmed with Ctrl-Shift-Enter instead of Enter when exiting edit mode. If don properly then Excel will put {} around the formula.
