Historical volatility is the volatility in stock returns that have already occured, implied volatility is the volatility that is expected by the market.

For historical volatility, calculate the daily return from the prices for a given time period. In Excel, use the STDEV() function on the daily returns over a certain time period to compute historical volatility.
For implied volatility, you need to use an option pricing model to back the implied volatility out, given all other parameters. |

For implied volatility you do not need "n". Use the Black Scholes model.
