2.1.

Calculating Mean, Standard Deviation, 5-number Summary, IQR

For the given data set, calculate (1) the mean, (2) the standard deviation, (3) the 5-number summary, and (4) the IQR. Comment on whether the data are symmetric or skewed. Comment on which statistics should be used to best describe the data (mean and standard deviation or median and IQR).

Poisson Probability Simulation

Modify the size of the grid of the total number of dots to be selected at random.[br]Careful! Large grids with lots of dots may take a long time to process.
