Find the mean and standard deviation of the difference between first and second {attempt}s.

\n

Calculate differences for second {attempt} – first {attempt}.

\n

Mean of difference = [[0]] (input as an exact decimal)

\n

Standard deviation of difference = [[1]] (input to 3 decimal places)

The mean of the differences is $\\var{meandiff}$.

\n

The variance $V$ of the differences is

\n

\\begin{align}
V &= \\frac{1}{4}\\left(\\simplify[]{({d[0]}^2+{d[1]}^2+{d[2]}^2+{d[3]}^2+{d[4]}^2)}-5\\times \\var{meandiff}^2\\right) \\\\
&= \\var{variance(d,true)}
\\end{align}

\n

Hence the standard deviation is $\\sqrt{V}=\\var{stdiff}$ to 3 decimal places.

\n

New stats extension functions replaced old ones. For example normalsample instead of randomnormal for generating normal samples. Also used built in sample variance and stdev.

\n

Calculations checked.
