    Measures of average and spread

    Thursday, 20 September, 2007

    A common way of summarising figures is to present an average. Suppose, for example, we wanted to look at incomes in the UK the most obvious summary measurement to use would be average income. Another indicator which might be of use is one which showed the spread or variation in individual incomes. Two countries might have similar average incomes, but the distribution around their average might be very different and it could be useful to have a measure which quantifies this difference.
