Understanding Statistics

Mean: The average value, calculated by summing all values and dividing by count
Median: The middle value when data is arranged in order
Mode: The value(s) that appear most frequently in the dataset
Standard Deviation: Measures how spread out data points are from the mean

When to Use Each Measure

Use Mean: When data is normally distributed without extreme outliers
Use Median: When data is skewed or contains outliers (more robust)
Use Mode: For categorical data or to find the most common value
Standard Deviation: Low values indicate data clustered around mean

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between population and sample statistics?

This calculator computes population statistics (using N in denominators). For sample statistics, the standard deviation would use N-1. Population statistics are used when you have data for the entire group you're studying.

How do I interpret skewness and kurtosis values?

Skewness measures asymmetry: values near 0 indicate symmetry, positive values indicate right tail, negative values indicate left tail. Kurtosis measures tail heaviness: positive values indicate heavy tails, negative values indicate light tails.

What data formats can I use?

You can enter data as a comma-separated list, CSV format (one value per line), or frequency format (value:frequency). The calculator automatically detects and parses your input format.

Is there a limit to how much data I can analyze?

Yes, the calculator supports up to 10,000 data points to ensure fast performance. For larger datasets, consider using specialized statistical software.
