Introduction. The standard deviation is a measure of the spread of scores within a set of data. Usually, we are interested in the standard deviation of a population. However, as we are often presented with data from a sample only, we can estimate the population standard deviation from a sample standard deviation.ntroduction.

Itching usually results from dry skin, a skin disorder, or an allergic reaction. If the person has no rash or skin abnormalities, the cause may be a drug, an allergic reaction that has internal effects, or a systemic disorder.
Dry skin is the most common cause for itchy skin without an obvious skin rash.Typically, this occurs in the wintertime because of low humidity levels, but spending much of the day in an air-conditioned environment can lead to dry skin also.
