Formula questions in New Quizzes

Is it possible to ask student multiple questions about the same set of randomly generated numbers?

That is, could I ask what is the mean of `x1`, `x2`, `x3` . . . .

And then ask them the variance and then the standard deviation of the same set of numbers? 

I'm trying to avoid making students recalculate the mean for a different set of numbers in order to calculate the variance or standard deviation.

Great question and one that lots of people have.  Not possible at the moment, although there are lots of people asking for it in Canvas ideas.  There is a Stimulus available in quizzes, and if that stimulus could have variables, it would be an elegant solution.
