It is reporting _proportion_ of the total variance. Not the variance.
The total variance is the sum of all the squared standard deviations. Only
the first 3 standard deviations are shown.

Hello,
It might be a trivial question but I just wanted to find out the relationship
between sdev and proportion of variance generated by prcomp. I got the
following result from my data set
PC1 PC2 PC3
Standard deviation 104.89454 15.40910 9.012047
