  2. Quartile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartile

    The three quartiles, resulting in four data divisions, are as follows: The first quartile (Q 1) is defined as the 25th percentile where lowest 25% data is below this point. It is also known as the lower quartile. The second quartile (Q 2) is the median of a data set; thus 50% of the data lies below this point.

  3. Five-number summary - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five-number_summary

    Splitting the observations either side of the median gives two groups of four observations. The median of the first group is the lower or first quartile, and is equal to (0 + 1)/2 = 0.5. The median of the second group is the upper or third quartile, and is equal to (27 + 61)/2 = 44. The smallest and largest observations are 0 and 63.

  4. Grouped data - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grouped_data

    The above data can be grouped in order to construct a frequency distribution in any of several ways. One method is to use intervals as a basis. The smallest value in the above data is 8 and the largest is 34. The interval from 8 to 34 is broken up into smaller subintervals (called class intervals). For each class interval, the number of data ...

  5. Quantile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantile

    The first quartile is determined by 11×(1/4) = 2.75, which rounds up to 3, meaning that 3 is the rank in the population (from least to greatest values) at which approximately 1/4 of the values are less than the value of the first quartile.

  6. Interquartile range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interquartile_range

    The IQR of a set of values is calculated as the difference between the upper and lower quartiles, Q 3 and Q 1. Each quartile is a median [8] calculated as follows. Given an even 2n or odd 2n+1 number of values first quartile Q 1 = median of the n smallest values third quartile Q 3 = median of the n largest values [8]

  7. Quartile coefficient of dispersion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartile_coefficient_of...

    The statistic is easily computed using the first and third quartiles, Q 1 and Q 3, respectively) for each data set. The quartile coefficient of dispersion is the ratio of half of the interquartile range (IQR) to the average of the quartiles (the midhinge): [1] = + = +.

  8. Interquartile mean - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interquartile_mean

    The interquartile mean (IQM) (or midmean) is a statistical measure of central tendency based on the truncated mean of the interquartile range.The IQM is very similar to the scoring method used in sports that are evaluated by a panel of judges: discard the lowest and the highest scores; calculate the mean value of the remaining scores.

    Box plot of the Michelson–Morley experiment, showing several summary statistics.. In descriptive statistics, summary statistics are used to summarize a set of observations, in order to communicate the largest amount of information as simply as possible.
