Formula Used

Mean: x̄ = Σx / n

Median: Middle sorted value, or average of two middle values.

Range: Maximum − Minimum

Population Variance: σ² = Σ(x − μ)² / n

Sample Variance: s² = Σ(x − x̄)² / (n − 1)

Standard Deviation: Square root of the relevant variance.

Quartiles: Q1 and Q3 are medians of lower and upper halves.

IQR: Q3 − Q1

Coefficient of Variation: CV = (Sample SD / |Mean|) × 100

Standard Error: SE = Sample SD / √n

Geometric Mean: GM = exp[Σln(x) / n], only for positive values.

Harmonic Mean: HM = n / Σ(1/x), unavailable when any value is zero.

Median Absolute Deviation: Median of |x − median| values.

Percentile: Linear interpolation across sorted positions.

Outlier Fences: Lower = Q1 − 1.5×IQR, Upper = Q3 + 1.5×IQR

Skewness and Excess Kurtosis: Standardized third and fourth central moments, describing asymmetry and tail shape.

How to Use This Calculator

  1. Type a helpful dataset name for your report or classwork.
  2. Paste numeric values into the input box using commas, spaces, lines, or semicolons.
  3. Choose the percentile you want to inspect, such as 90 or 95.
  4. Select the number of decimal places for cleaner presentation.
  5. Press Calculate Summary to generate descriptive statistics instantly.
  6. Review central tendency, spread, distribution shape, percentile, and outlier fences.
  7. Use the export buttons to save a CSV table or PDF report.

Frequently Asked Questions

1) What kind of values can I paste here?

You can paste integers, decimals, negative values, and scientific notation. Separate items with commas, spaces, line breaks, or semicolons.

2) What happens to text or broken entries?

Non-numeric items are skipped from calculations and listed as invalid tokens. This helps you spot data cleaning issues without stopping the summary.

3) Does this calculator show both sample and population results?

Yes. It reports both sample and population variance plus standard deviation, so you can match classroom formulas or practical analytics workflows.

4) How are quartiles calculated?

The values are sorted first. Then Q1 and Q3 are taken from the lower and upper halves, while the median becomes Q2.

5) When is geometric mean unavailable?

Geometric mean needs every value to be positive. Zero or negative entries make logarithmic averaging invalid, so the result is marked unavailable.

6) Why can harmonic mean be missing?

Harmonic mean divides by each value. If any entry equals zero, division becomes impossible, so the calculator safely returns unavailable.

7) How are outliers identified?

Outliers use Tukey fences. Values below Q1 minus 1.5 times IQR, or above Q3 plus 1.5 times IQR, are flagged.

8) Can I use the exports in reports?

Yes. The CSV is convenient for spreadsheets, while the PDF creates a neat report snapshot that is easy to share or archive.
