: Mean n 2 . The datum or the average value of two data at the middle : Median 3 . The datum appears the most : Mode
� Measures of dispersion for a data set { x1 , x2, x3, , x } arranged in ascending order :
1 . xn � x1
: Range
2 . Two subgroups A and B can be formed from the data set such that all data of the subgroup A are less than or equal to the median , while all
data of the subgroup B are greater than or equal to the median 3 . Q1
� The median of the subgroup A : Lower quartile
4 . Q3
� The median of the subgroup B : Upper quartile 5 . Q3� Q1: Inter-quartile range ( IQR )
