3.1 Measures of Central Tendency
A statistic is a characteristic or measure obtained by using the data values from a sample.
A parameter is a characteristic or measure obtained by using all the data values for a specific population.

Measures of Central Tendency
General Rounding Rule
The basic rounding rule is that rounding should not be done until the final answer is calculated. Use of parentheses on calculators or use of spreadsheets help to avoid early rounding error.

Measures of Central Tendency: Mean The mean is the quotient of the sum of
the values and the total number of values.
The symbol is used for sample mean.
For a population, the Greek letter μ (mu) is used for the mean.

Rounding rule of the mean
The mean should be rounded to one more decimal place than occurs in the raw data.

Rounding Rule: Mean
The mean should be rounded to one more decimal place than occurs in the raw data.
The mean, in most cases, is not an actual data value.

Measures of Central Tendency: Median The median is the midpoint of the data
array. The symbol for the median is MD.
The median will be one of the data values if there is an odd number of values.
The median will be the average of two data values if there is an even number of values.

Measures of Central Tendency: Mode The mode is the value that occurs most
often in a data set.
It is sometimes said to be the most typical case.
There may be no mode, one mode (unimodal), two modes (bimodal), or many modes (multimodal).

Properties of the Mean Uses all data values. Varies less than the median or mode Used in computing other statistics, such as
the variance Unique, usually not one of the data values Cannot be used with open-ended classes Affected by extremely high or low values,
called outliers

Properties of the Median Gives the midpoint Used when it is necessary to find out
whether the data values fall into the upper half or lower half of the distribution.
Can be used for an open-ended distribution.
Affected less than the mean by extremely high or extremely low values.
