  2. Box plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box_plot

    Figure 2. Box-plot with whiskers from minimum to maximum Figure 3. Same box-plot with whiskers drawn within the 1.5 IQR value. A boxplot is a standardized way of displaying the dataset based on the five-number summary: the minimum, the maximum, the sample median, and the first and third quartiles.

  3. Seven-number summary - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven-number_summary

    sample maximum (nominal: lowest hundredth percentile) Note that the middle five of the seven numbers can all be obtained by successive partitioning of the ordered data into subsets of equal size. Extending the seven-number summary by continued partitioning produces the nine-number summary , the eleven-number summary , and so on.

  4. Five-number summary - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five-number_summary

    The five-number summary gives information about the location (from the median), spread (from the quartiles) and range (from the sample minimum and maximum) of the observations. Since it reports order statistics (rather than, say, the mean) the five-number summary is appropriate for ordinal measurements , as well as interval and ratio measurements.

    Box and whisker plot: Box and Whisker Plot: x axis; y axis; A method for graphically depicting groups of numerical data through their quartiles. Box plots may also have lines extending from the boxes (whiskers) indicating variability outside the upper and lower quartiles. Outliers may be plotted as individual points.

  6. Interquartile range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interquartile_range

    These quartiles are denoted by Q 1 (also called the lower quartile), Q 2 (the median), and Q 3 (also called the upper quartile). The lower quartile corresponds with the 25th percentile and the upper quartile corresponds with the 75th percentile, so IQR = Q 3 − Q 1 [1]. The IQR is an example of a trimmed estimator, defined as the 25% trimmed ...

  7. Quartile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartile

    The lower quartile value is the median of the lower half of the data. The upper quartile value is the median of the upper half of the data. The values found by this method are also known as "Tukey's hinges"; [4] see also midhinge.

  8. Plot (graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plot_(graphics)

    Box plot : In descriptive statistics, a boxplot, also known as a box-and-whisker diagram or plot, is a convenient way of graphically depicting groups of numerical data through their five-number summaries (the smallest observation, lower quartile (Q1), median (Q2), upper quartile (Q3), and largest observation). A boxplot may also indicate which ...

  9. Percentile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentile

    The 25th percentile is also known as the first quartile (Q 1), the 50th percentile as the median or second quartile (Q 2), and the 75th percentile as the third quartile (Q 3). For example, the 50th percentile (median) is the score below (or at or below, depending on the definition) which 50% of the scores in the distribution are found.
