Probability Density functions

Percentiles

There are 3 important percentiles:

  • 50% - median
  • 25% - 1st percentile
  • 75% - 3rd percentile

[!note]+ These 3 percentiles allow the creation of box plot graphs. These specific graphs allow the discovery and presentation of outliers.

Covariance & Correlation

[!hint]+ Covariance measures the direction of a relationship between two variables, while correlation measures the strength of that relationship.
