    Ensure your calculator is in 'STAT' mode, which supports statistical functions. Check the manual or online resources to confirm if your model supports frequency functions. If it should but doesn't, try resetting it to factory settings or updating the firmware, if possible.

    What if the standard deviation comes up blank, with Sx showing nothing?

    Community Answer
    If the standard deviation calculation results in a blank or undefined value, there are a few potential reasons to consider. It could be due to a lack of data points or all data points being identical, as standard deviation measures the amount of variation or dispersion in a set of values. It might also result from computational errors or incorrect application of the standard deviation formula. You should review the data set and the calculation process to identify and correct any issues.

    How do I find the IQR on a TI-84 calculator?
    David Reynolds
    Community Answer
    To find the Interquartile Range (IQR) on a TI-84 calculator, first enter your data set by pressing 'STAT', then '1:Edit', and entering the data. Next, calculate the quartiles by pressing 'STAT', scrolling to 'CALC', and selecting '1-Var Stats'. Subtract Q1 from Q3, which are displayed in the output, to find the IQR.
