Statistical Applets

One-Variable Statistical Calculator

The pattern of variation of a variable is called its distribution. The shape and spread of a distribution can be displayed graphically or summarized by descriptive numerical values.

This applet calculates standard numerical statistics (e.g., mean, standard deviation, quartiles) and shows graphical displays (a histogram and a stemplot) of one-variable data sets. You can choose to view data sets from your book, or enter your own set of data.

Choose a data set on the first tab below, then click the other tabs to view or manipulate the data, see summary statistics, or view a histogram or stemplot of the data.
