About this tool

The mean is the sum divided by the count. The median is the middle value when the numbers are sorted, which is less affected by outliers. The mode is the most frequent value, and the range is the difference between the largest and smallest.

Standard deviation measures spread. Use the sample version when your numbers are a subset of a larger group and the population version when you have every value.

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the median better than the mean?
When the data has extreme values, such as incomes, because the median is not pulled by outliers.
What if there is no mode?
If every value appears once, there is no mode and the tool says so.
