In statistics, the standard deviation is a measure of the amount of variation or dispersion of a set of values. In this task, we will write a C# program to find the standard deviation of a set of numbers.
Problem Statement
Write a C# program to find the standard deviation of a set of numbers. The program should take input from the user in the form of a set of numbers. The program should display the standard deviation of the numbers as output.
