In statistics, "n-1" refers to the degrees of freedom used in the calculation of sample variance and sample standard deviation. When estimating variance from a sample rather than a whole population, we divide by n-1 (the sample size minus one) instead of n to account for the fact that we are using a sample to estimate a population parameter. This adjustment corrects for bias, making the sample variance an unbiased estimator of the population variance. It is known as Bessel's correction.
