Handicap Comparison
To perform the handicap comparison we look at all the scores. For each score we determine the index corresponding to the handicap methods selected. In addition we calculate the standard deviation and average of all indexes at the corresponding dates.

Standard Deviation
In statistics, the standard deviation (SD, also represented by the Greek letter sigma σ or the Latin letter s) is a measure that is used to quantify the amount of variation or dispersion of a set of data values. A low standard deviation indicates that the data points tend to be close to the mean (also called the expected value) of the set, while a high standard deviation indicates that the data points are spread out over a wider range of values.
