VarP (MDX)

Returns the population variance of a numeric expression evaluated over a set, using the biased population formula (dividing by n-1).

Syntax


VarP(Set_Expression [ ,Numeric_Expression ] )

Arguments

  • Set_Expression
    A valid Multidimensional Expressions (MDX) expression that returns a set.

  • Numeric_Expression
    A valid numeric expression that is typically a Multidimensional Expressions (MDX) expression of cell coordinates that return a number.

Remarks

The VarP function returns the biased variance of a specified numeric expression, evaluated over a specified set.

The VarP function uses the biased population formula, while the Var function uses the unbiased population formula.
