Pooled Variance Calculator

Online calculator to calculating the pooled variance of two data series


On this page the pooled variance of two series of numbers is calculated.

The pooled variance is calculated as the sample covariance for a subset and for the total set.

To perform the calculation, enter two series of numbers. Then click the 'Calculate' button.

Input format

The data can be entered as a series of numbers, separated by semicolons or spaces. You can enter the data as a list (one value per line). Or from a column from Excel spreadsheet by copy & paste

Sample variance

Pooled variance (also known as combined variance or composite variance), is a method of estimating the variance of different populations when the mean of each population can be different, but the variance of each population can be assumed to be the same.

The pooled variance is calculated as the sample covariance for a subset and for the entire set.
