The sample standard deviation will be the positive square root of the sample variance. The sample variance will be determined using the computational formula [1/
(n-1)] * {sum (as i goes from 1 to n) of (X_i)^2 - (1/n) * [sum (as i goes from 1 to n) of (X_i)]^2}. So we get 1/11 * (0.5 - 1/12*(2^2)) = 1.51%%. The positive square root of 1.51%% is 1.23%.
