About Mean, Median, Mode, Range Calculator
This calculator computes various statistical measures for a given set of numbers. Understanding these concepts is fundamental in statistics and data analysis across many fields including mathematics, science, engineering, and social sciences.
Definitions
- Mean (Average): The sum of all numbers divided by the count of numbers.
- Median: The middle value when numbers are sorted. For even counts, it's the average of the two middle numbers.
- Mode: The number that appears most frequently. A set may have no mode or multiple modes.
- Range: The difference between the largest and smallest numbers.
- Geometric Mean: The nth root of the product of n numbers, useful for growth rates.
How to Use This Calculator
Enter your numbers separated by commas or spaces in the input field. The calculator will:
- Parse and clean the input data
- Sort the numbers (if selected)
- Calculate all statistical measures
- Display the results with step-by-step solutions
Example Calculation
For the numbers: 3, 7, 5, 13, 20, 23, 39, 23, 40, 23, 14, 12, 56, 23, 29
- Sorted: 3, 5, 7, 12, 13, 14, 20, 23, 23, 23, 23, 29, 39, 40, 56
- Count: 15 numbers
- Sum: 330
- Mean: 330 ÷ 15 = 22
- Median: 23 (the 8th number in the sorted list)
- Mode: 23 (appears 4 times)
- Range: 56 - 3 = 53
Applications
These statistical measures are used in:
- Analyzing test scores and academic performance
- Understanding data distributions in research
- Quality control and process improvement
