## Variance
Variance is defined as "the average of the squared differences from the Mean."[source](https://www.mathsisfun.com/data/standard-deviation.html) In the context of this clustering problem, it refers to data that the numbers of our dataset tend to diverge a bit too much from the mean.

✅ This is a great moment to think about all the ways you could correct this issue. Tweak the data a bit more? Use different columns? Use a different algorithm? Hint: Try [scaling your data](https://www.mygreatlearning.com/blog/learning-data-science-with-k-means-clustering/) to normalize it and test other columns.

## Review & Self Study
Take a look at K-Means Simulator [such as this one](https://user.ceng.metu.edu.tr/~akifakkus/courses/ceng574/k-means/). You can use this tool to visualize sample data points and determine its centroids. You can edit the data's randomness, numbers of clusters and numbers of centroids. Does this help you get an idea of how the data can be grouped?

Also, take a look at [this handout on k-means](https://stanford.edu/~cpiech/cs221/handouts/kmeans.html) from Stanford.
