Extracted text: Computing variance by hand is a tedious process. To compute the variance, we can use R using the command (sd(name of data))^2. But there is no direct command to compute the population variance. For a population size n, give the correction factor by which you must multiply the final answer from R to convert it from a sample variance to a population variance. (Hint: Review the population variance formula and the sample variance formula.)
