Using the calculator in Stat Mode
You need to know how to find the mean using a calculator.
Calculators differ in how they do this, and even the simplest modern calculator is far too complex an instrument for most uses. The more basic types of calculator have gone out of fashion, so you need to learn to do simple operations on the calculator you have.
Statistics calculations are performed in Statistics Mode, which is usually abbreviated to SD.
STEP 1
Enter stat mode
Press Mode
Select SD, here by pressing the button 2. That puts you in statistics mode.
You will see an SD in the display.
When you need the calculator for ordinary calculation, you need to exit SD mode by clearing and resetting ALL.
SLIDE 8
Using the calculator in Stat Mode
It is assumed you are in statistics mode (SD)
STEP 2
Clear the statistics memory
Press Shift CLR
Select Sc1, here by pressing the button 1.
Do not select 3, All. This will clear the SD mode, and return you to calculator mode.
Press ON, and you are ready to enter data.
STEP 9
We will enter the following data
31 26 19 30 22 28
22 25 31 32 35 22
STEP 3
Key in the value of the first data point, which is 31 and press the M+ button. This button is usually located on the right-hand side, above the AC button. Below it you may find the symbol DT, which in fact indicates that you are adding the value to the stat memory.
In the display the value indicates that you have entered the first data point. As you enter the other data this will increase.
Repeat the process of the other data points. There are twelve data points in all in our example.
SLIDE 10
Finding the total sum
You will find S-SUM and S-VAR buttons on you calculator. These are often located above the 1 and 2 buttons. Because they are above these buttons, you must press SHIFT to use them.
STEP 4
Press SHIFT 1, S-SUM
The sigma symbol indicates a sum.

We can use this to calculate the mean. Since the number of data points is , the mean is

The median of 47 consecutive numbers is 35. What is the least integer in the list?
SLIDE 22
The median of 47 consecutive numbers is 35. What is the least integer in the list?
Solution
The median is the middle value when the numbers are arranged in ascending order. Taking out this middle number, we have numbers. Half of these lie below the median, and half above; that is are below 35. Hence the least number is .

The range is the largest value less the smallest value. The median is the middle value. In this set of data, there are 50 data points, so the median is the average of the 25th and 26th values.
About the median
For an odd number of data points there is a definite answer to the question: what is the median value? Consider the following five data points from a complete set of data: 1 1 3 5 7. There is a middle number, so the median is 3. When there is an even number of data points, there is no definite median. In this case one simply has to make a rule (a convention) as to what the median shall be. The rule in this text is that the median is the average of the two middle numbers. In this way a set of data can have a fraction as a median. Some statisticians in other textbooks allow either the lower or the upper number to be the median, and some examiners allow all three to be a valid answer.
Question
Find the range and the median of the above data.
SLIDE 48
Range
The last value is 108. The first value is 43.
The range is
Median
There are 50 data points in the set, so the median is the average of the 25th and 26th values. These are 74 and 76 respectively. The median is 75.
SLIDE 49
Quartiles
We can also divide the data into quarters. The first quartile is also called the 25th percentile and is denoted Q1.
Here there are 50 data points.
The data is discrete (individual numbers), so can be divided exactly into two blocks of 25 numbers. This makes the median into the average of the two middle numbers.
Each block of 25 numbers to the left and right of the median has a distinct middle value. For Q1 it is the 13th value, which divides the 25 numbers into blocks of 12 numbers to the left and right: . Thus, Q1 is 62.
Find the median third quartile and the inter-quartile range of the above data.
SLIDE 50
The two middle numbers are the 25th and 26th numbers. Here 74 and 76 respectively, so .
Q1 is the 13th value, and Q3 is the 38th value
SLIDE 51
The median is also denoted Q2.
