numpy.var() in Python

x = 1 1 1 1 1 Standard Deviation = 0 . Variance = 0 y = 9, 2, 5, 4, 12, 7, 8, 11, 9, 3, 7, 4, 12, 5, 4, 10, 9, 6, 9, 4 Step 1 : Mean of distribution 4 = 7 Step 2 : Summation of (x - x.mean())**2 = 178 Step 3 : Finding Mean = 178 /20 = 8.9 This Result is Variance.

arr : [array_like] input array. axis : [int or tuples of int] axis along which we want to calculate the variance. Otherwise, it will consider arr to be flattened (works on all the axis). axis = 0 means variance along the column and axis = 1 means variance along the row. out : [ndarray, optional] Different array in which we want to place the result. The array must have the same dimensions as expected output. dtype : [data-type, optional] Type we desire while computing variance. Results : Variance of the array (a scalar value if axis is none) or array with variance values along specified axis.
