I was referring a chapter of STATISTICS pertaining to Standard XI. It is a scoring subject but very little persons know its practical use.
.
The book of my daughter remained open and she is now sleeping.
.
As I have interests in so many subjects hence I have decided to write somewhat differently on the topic of Measures of Central Tendency.
.
Generally it is believed that Mean,Median & Mode are easy to calculate. Hence nothing interesting is there except to score high marks in the subject.
.
There are so many points to consider these Mean, Median and Mode in our practical life.
.
Please have a look and comment.
.
1. Mean talks about average.
.
It is not pertaining to central tendency.
.
General people are covered under Mean.
.
It does not MEAN that they are placed centrally.
.
2. Median talks about value located in the MIDDLE, i.e. perfectly positioned at CENTRE.
.
It is denoted by letter M. The letter M itself is perfectly placed centrally in the alphabets.
.
It is 13th letter out of 26.
.
3. Mode talks about REPEATED VALUE. It means it shows EXPERIENCE.
.
If a particular event happens regularly in a certain MODE (style), we say it is MODE.
.
Here we can't say it is AVERAGE or CENTRALLY PLACED.
.
IMPORTANT :
Generally it is believed that MODE is so easy to calculate.
.
Since it is so easy hence it has no s(m)uch value.
.
That is why very few people give importance to the experience in their own practical life.
.
Whatever is clearly established; hardly few people follow.
.
It can be said that they come under MEAN category of not following the experience.
