Overview

The Mean/Median/Mode Calculator computes the central tendency measures of a data set. It calculates the arithmetic mean, median, and mode together to provide a comprehensive understanding of the data's characteristics.

Formula

Arithmetic Mean: x̄ = (x₁ + x₂ + ... + xₙ) / n = Σxᵢ / n

Median:
  Sort data in ascending order, then:
  If n is odd: middle value = x₍(n+1)/2₎
  If n is even: average of two middle values = (x₍n/2₎ + x₍n/2+1₎) / 2

Mode: The most frequently occurring value (can be multiple or none)

How to Use

1. 1Enter data values separated by commas or spaces.
2. 2The arithmetic mean, median, and mode are all calculated at once.
3. 3The range (max - min) and data count are also displayed.

Tips

• ✔When outliers are present, the median is more representative than the mean.
• ✔There can be no mode (all values appear once) or multiple modes.
• ✔For a normal distribution, mean ≈ median ≈ mode.
