Core Descriptive Metrics

Arithmetic Mean x̄: sum of all numbers divided by count n.

Median: middle element when numbers are sorted sequentially.

Mode: most frequently occurring value in the dataset.

Variance (s² / σ²): average squared deviation from the mean.

Standard Deviation (s / σ): square root of variance indicating dispersion.

Calculation Methodology

Sample variance implements Bessel's correction dividing by n - 1 to eliminate sampling bias. Population metrics divide by full population size N.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the key difference between mean and median?

Mean is heavily skewed by extreme outliers, whereas the median is a robust measure of central tendency.

What does standard deviation reflect?

Standard deviation quantifies the typical distance between data points and the dataset average.

Can a dataset have multiple modes?

Yes, datasets can be bimodal or multimodal if multiple values share the highest occurrence frequency.

How should input values be separated?

Use spaces, commas, semicolons, or newlines to separate numbers.
