Formula of "mean dist" and "standard deviation"

Hi there,

I could not figure out how the computation of "mean distance" and "standard deviation" for Cloud/Cloud or Cloud/Mesh Distances work.

Is it something like:

mean dist = sum ( distances ) / n
std deviation = sqrt ( sum ( Xi - Xm )) / n

n: number of all distances
Xi: distance from Point i ...
