Finding statistical values for list elements

To find values such as the mean, median, maximum, and minimum values of the elements in a list, use the Statistics aplet.

Example

In this example, use the Statistics aplet to find the mean,

 

median, maximum and minimum values of the elements in the

 

list, L1.

 

1. Create L1 with values 88, 90, 89, 65, 70, and 89.

 

>6+,)7@{ 88 >￿@90 >￿@

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

89>￿@65>￿@ 0>￿@89

 

 

 

 

>6+,)7@} 672?a

 

 

 

 

>$/3+$@ L1

 

 

 

 

>(17(5@

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

H I N T If the Decimal Mark setting in the Modes input form (>6+,) @MODES)is set to Comma, use >￿@ instead of >￿@.

2.In HOME, store L1 into C1. You will then be able to see the list data in the Numeric view of the Statistics aplet.

>672?a$/3+$@L1 >$/3+$@C1

>(17(5@

3.Start the Statistics aplet, and select 1–variable mode (press ￿9$5￿a, if necessary, to display ￿9$5￿a).

>$3/( @ Select

67Statistics$57a￿

Note: Your list values are now in column1 (C1).
