When the sum of squares is higher, it signifies that the data points exhibit greater variability or dispersion around the mean.

Conversely, a lower sum of squares indicates that the data points are closer to the mean, reflecting lower variability.

Next, square the resulting differences to ensure all values are positive and to emphasize larger deviations.
