corga

You entered a number set X of {1,2,3,4,5,6}

From the 6 numbers you entered, we want to calculate the root mean square:

Ranked Data Calculation

Sort our number set in ascending order

and assign a ranking to each number:

Ranked Data Table

Number Set Value	1	2	3	4	5	6
Rank	1	2	3	4	5	6

Step 2: Using original number set, assign the rank value:

Since we have 6 numbers in our original number set, we assign ranks from lowest to highest (1 to 6)
Our original number set in unsorted order was 1,2,3,4,5,6
Our respective ranked data set is 1,2,3,4,5,6

Root Mean Square Calculation

Root Mean Square =	√A
	√N

where A = x12 + x22 + x32 + x42 + x52 + x62 and N = 6 number set items

Calculate A

A = 12 + 22 + 32 + 42 + 52 + 62

A = 1 + 4 + 9 + 16 + 25 + 36

A = 91

Calculate Root Mean Square (RMS):

RMS =	√91
	√6

RMS =	9.5393920141695
	2.4494897427832

RMS = 3.8944404818493

Central Tendency Calculation

Central tendency contains:
Mean, median, mode, harmonic mean,
geometric mean, mid-range, weighted-average:

Calculate Mean (Average) denoted as μ

μ =	Sum of your number Set
	Total Numbers Entered

μ =	ΣXi
	n

μ =	1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6
	6

μ =	21
	6

μ = 3.5

Calculate the Median (Middle Value)
Since our number set contains 6 elements which is an even number, our median number is determined as follows:
Number Set = (n1,n2,n3,n4,n5,n6)
Median Number 1 = ½(n)
Median Number 1 = ½(6)
Median Number 1 = Number Set Entry 3

Median Number 2 = Median Number 1 + 1
Median Number 2 = Number Set Entry 3 + 1
Median Number 2 = Number Set Entry 4

For an even number set, we average the 2 median number entries:
Median = ½(n3 + n4)

Therefore, we sort our number set in ascending order and our median is the average of entry 3 and entry 4 of our number set highlighted in red:
(1,2,3,4,5,6)
Median = ½(3 + 4)
Median = ½(7)
Median = 3.5

Calculate the Mode - Highest Frequency Number

The highest frequency of occurence in our number set is 1 times by the following numbers in green:
(1,2,3,4,5,6)
Since the maximum frequency of any number is 1, no mode exists.
Mode = N/A

Calculate Harmonic Mean:

Harmonic Mean =	N
	1/x1 + 1/x2 + 1/x3 + 1/x4 + 1/x5 + 1/x6

With N = 6 and each xi a member of the number set you entered, we have:

Harmonic Mean =	6
	1/1 + 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/4 + 1/5 + 1/6

Harmonic Mean =	6
	1 + 0.5 + 0.33333333333333 + 0.25 + 0.2 + 0.16666666666667

Harmonic Mean =	6
	2.45

Harmonic Mean = 2.4489795918367

Calculate Geometric Mean:

Geometric Mean = (x1 * x2 * x3 * x4 * x5 * x6)1/N
Geometric Mean = (1 * 2 * 3 * 4 * 5 * 6)1/6
Geometric Mean = 7200.16666666666667
Geometric Mean = 2.9937951655239

Calcualte Mid-Range:

Mid-Range =	Maximum Value in Number Set + Minimum Value in Number Set
	2

Mid-Range =	6 + 1
	2

Mid-Range =	7
	2

Mid-Range = 3.5

Stem and Leaf Plot

Take the first digit of each value in our number set

Use this as our stem value

Use the remaining digits for our leaf portion

Sort our number set in descending order:

{6,5,4,3,2,1}

Stem	Leaf

Basic Stats Calculations

Mean, Variance, Standard Deviation, Median, Mode

Calculate Mean (Average) denoted as μ

μ =	Sum of your number Set
	Total Numbers Entered

μ =	ΣXi
	n

μ =	1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6
	6

μ =	21
	6

μ = 3.5

Calculate Variance denoted as σ2
Let's evaluate the square difference from the mean of each term (Xi - μ)2:
(X1 - μ)2 = (1 - 3.5)2 = -2.52 = 6.25
(X2 - μ)2 = (2 - 3.5)2 = -1.52 = 2.25
(X3 - μ)2 = (3 - 3.5)2 = -0.52 = 0.25
(X4 - μ)2 = (4 - 3.5)2 = 0.52 = 0.25
(X5 - μ)2 = (5 - 3.5)2 = 1.52 = 2.25
(X6 - μ)2 = (6 - 3.5)2 = 2.52 = 6.25

Adding our 6 sum of squared differences up, we have our variance numerator:
ΣE(Xi - μ)2 = 6.25 + 2.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 2.25 + 6.25
ΣE(Xi - μ)2 = 17.5

Now that we have the sum of squared differences from the means, calculate variance:

Population

Sample

σ2 =	ΣE(Xi - μ)2
	n

σ2 =	ΣE(Xi - μ)2
	n - 1

σ2 =	17.5
	6

σ2 =	17.5
	5

Variance: σp2 = 2.9166666666667

Variance: σs2 = 3.5

Standard Deviation: σp = √σp2 = √2.9166666666667

Standard Deviation: σs = √σs2 = √3.5

Standard Deviation: σp = 1.7078

Standard Deviation: σs = 1.8708

Calculate the Standard Error of the Mean:

Population

Sample

SEM =	σp
	√n

SEM =	σs
	√n

SEM =	1.7078
	√6

SEM =	1.8708
	√6

SEM =	1.7078
	2.4494897427832

SEM =	1.8708
	2.4494897427832

SEM = 0.6972

SEM = 0.7638

Skewness =	E(Xi - μ)3
	(n - 1)σ3

Let's evaluate the square difference from the mean of each term (Xi - μ)3:
(X1 - μ)3 = (1 - 3.5)3 = -2.53 = -15.625
(X2 - μ)3 = (2 - 3.5)3 = -1.53 = -3.375
(X3 - μ)3 = (3 - 3.5)3 = -0.53 = -0.125
(X4 - μ)3 = (4 - 3.5)3 = 0.53 = 0.125
(X5 - μ)3 = (5 - 3.5)3 = 1.53 = 3.375
(X6 - μ)3 = (6 - 3.5)3 = 2.53 = 15.625

Adding our 6 sum of cubed differences up, we have our skewness numerator:
ΣE(Xi - μ)3 = -15.625 + -3.375 + -0.125 + 0.125 + 3.375 + 15.625
ΣE(Xi - μ)3 = 0

Now that we have the sum of cubed differences from the means, calculate skewness:

Skewness =	E(Xi - μ)3
	(n - 1)σ3

Skewness =	0
	(6 - 1)1.70783

Skewness =	0
	(5)4.980936758552

Skewness =	0
	24.90468379276

Skewness = 0

Calculate Average Deviation (Mean Absolute Deviation) denoted below:

AD =	Σ\|Xi - μ\|
	n

Let's evaluate the absolute value of the difference from the mean of each term |Xi - μ|:
|X1 - μ| = |1 - 3.5| = |-2.5| = 2.5
|X2 - μ| = |2 - 3.5| = |-1.5| = 1.5
|X3 - μ| = |3 - 3.5| = |-0.5| = 0.5
|X4 - μ| = |4 - 3.5| = |0.5| = 0.5
|X5 - μ| = |5 - 3.5| = |1.5| = 1.5
|X6 - μ| = |6 - 3.5| = |2.5| = 2.5

Adding our 6 absolute value of differences from the mean, we have our average deviation numerator:
Σ|Xi - μ| = 2.5 + 1.5 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 1.5 + 2.5
Σ|Xi - μ| = 9

Now that we have the absolute value of the differences from the means, calculate average deviation (mean absolute deviation):

AD =	Σ\|Xi - μ\|
	n

AD =	9
	6

Average Deviation = 1.5

Median Number 2 = Median Number 1 + 1
Median Number 2 = Number Set Entry 3 + 1
Median Number 2 = Number Set Entry 4

For an even number set, we average the 2 median number entries:
Median = ½(n3 + n4)

Calculate the Mode - Highest Frequency Number

The highest frequency of occurence in our number set is 1 times by the following numbers in green:
(1,2,3,4,5,6)
Since the maximum frequency of any number is 1, no mode exists.
Mode = N/A

Calculate the Range

Range = Largest Number in the Number Set - Smallest Number in the Number Set
Range = 6 - 1
Range = 5

Calculate Pearsons Skewness Coefficient 1:

PSC1 =	μ - Mode
	σ

PSC1 =	3(3.5 - N/A)
	1.7078

Since no mode exists, we do not have a Pearsons Skewness Coefficient 1

Calculate Pearsons Skewness Coefficient 2:

PSC2 =	μ - Median
	σ

PSC1 =	3(3.5 - 3.5)
	1.7078

PSC2 =	3 x 0
	1.7078

PSC2 =	0
	1.7078

PSC2 = 0Entropy = Ln(n)
Entropy = Ln(6)
Entropy = 1.7917594692281

Mid-Range =	Smallest Number in the Set + Largest Number in the Set
	2

Mid-Range =	6 + 1
	2

Mid-Range =	7
	2

Mid-Range = 3.5

Calculate the Quartile Items

We need to sort our number set from lowest to highest shown below:
{1,2,3,4,5,6}

Calculate Upper Quartile (UQ) when y = 75%:

V =	y(n + 1)
	100

V =	75(6 + 1)
	100

V =	75(7)
	100

V =	525
	100

V = 5 ← Rounded down to the nearest integer

Upper quartile (UQ) point = Point # 5 in the dataset which is 5
1,2,3,4,5,6

Calculate Lower Quartile (LQ) when y = 25%:

V =	y(n + 1)
	100

V =	25(6 + 1)
	100

V =	25(7)
	100

V =	175
	100

V = 2 ← Rounded up to the nearest integer

Lower quartile (LQ) point = Point # 2 in the dataset which is 2
1,2,3,4,5,6

Calculate Inter-Quartile Range (IQR):

IQR = UQ - LQ
IQR = 5 - 2
IQR = 3

Calculate Lower Inner Fence (LIF):

Lower Inner Fence (LIF) = LQ - 1.5 x IQR
Lower Inner Fence (LIF) = 2 - 1.5 x 3
Lower Inner Fence (LIF) = 2 - 4.5
Lower Inner Fence (LIF) = -2.5

Calculate Upper Inner Fence (UIF):

Upper Inner Fence (UIF) = UQ + 1.5 x IQR
Upper Inner Fence (UIF) = 5 + 1.5 x 3
Upper Inner Fence (UIF) = 5 + 4.5
Upper Inner Fence (UIF) = 9.5

Calculate Lower Outer Fence (LOF):

Lower Outer Fence (LOF) = LQ - 3 x IQR
Lower Outer Fence (LOF) = 2 - 3 x 3
Lower Outer Fence (LOF) = 2 - 9
Lower Outer Fence (LOF) = -7

Calculate Upper Outer Fence (UOF):

Upper Outer Fence (UOF) = UQ + 3 x IQR
Upper Outer Fence (UOF) = 5 + 3 x 3
Upper Outer Fence (UOF) = 5 + 9
Upper Outer Fence (UOF) = 14

Calculate Suspect Outliers:

Suspect Outliers are values between the inner and outer fences
We wish to mark all values in our dataset (v) in red below such that -7 < v < -2.5 and 9.5 < v < 14
1,2,3,4,5,6

Calculate Highly Suspect Outliers:

Highly Suspect Outliers are values outside the outer fences
We wish to mark all values in our dataset (v) in red below such that v < -7 or v > 14
1,2,3,4,5,6

Calculate weighted average

1,2,3,4,5,6

Weighted-Average Formula:

Multiply each value by each probability amount

We do this by multiplying each Xi x pi to get a weighted score Y

Weighted Average =	X1p1 + X2p2 + X3p3 + X4p4 + X5p5 + X6p6
	n

Weighted Average =	1 x 0.2 + 2 x 0.4 + 3 x 0.6 + 4 x 0.8 + 5 x 0.9 + 6 x
	6

Weighted Average =	0.2 + 0.8 + 1.8 + 3.2 + 4.5 + 0
	6

Weighted Average =	10.5
	6

Weighted Average = 1.75

Frequency Distribution Table

Show the freqency distribution table for this number set

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

Determine the Number of Intervals using Sturges Rule:

We need to choose the smallest integer k such that 2k ≥ n where n = 6

For k = 1, we have 21 = 2

For k = 2, we have 22 = 4

For k = 3, we have 23 = 8 ← Use this since it is greater than our n value of 6

Therefore, we use 3 intervals

Our maximum value in our number set of 6 - 1 = 5

Each interval size is the difference of the maximum and minimum value divided by the number of intervals

Interval Size =	5
	3

Add 1 to this giving us 1 + 1 = 2
