OK, I have a casio fx-82ms. I've cleared the memory. I set the mode to sd. put in some numbers pressing M+ after each. Then, pressing shift 1 should give me mean while shift 2 the standard deviation.

But it comes up with the same. For standard deviation, on screen is:

x with line above.


1


Then another x and owith a line and an n all next to each other.


2


then the same as previous except -| at the end and:

3


What is wrong??

Reset your calculator, go through mode/menu and choose normal or use a schools calculator
