In this lesson, students will expand their statistical knowledge to include the spread of a dataset. They will learn about and apply measures of spread including standard deviation, variance, range, and interquartile range.


Objective

Students will be able to:

  • Use functions to compute the standard deviation and variance of a Series
  • Use variables, functions, and operators to determine the range and interquartile range of a Series
  • Use functions to plot a boxplot and histogram
  • Understand what the measures of spread mean for a dataset
