In this video we discuss why and when we divide by n-1 instead of n in the sample variance and the sample standard deviation formula, known in the statistics literature as the Bessel's correction. This method corrects the bias in the estimation of the population variance. but only partially corrects the bias in the estimation of the population standard deviation (and that's why I didn't include the standard deviation in this video).
