  2. Compute \(x_{(5)}.\)

  3. Compute \(x_{(1)}\) and \(x_{(n)}.\)

  4. What is mean value?

  5. What is median value?

  6. Compute \(Q_1\) and \(Q_3\).

  7. What is IQR?

  8. What is \(UF\) and \(LF\)?

  9. Are there any outlies?

Question 2

For new measurements

## 1 1 3 2 4 3 11 8 4 5

  1. Repeat all computations form the previous question.

  2. Which boxplot was harder to compute and why?

Question 3

This famous (Fisher’s or Anderson’s) iris data set gives the measurements in centimeters of the variables sepal length and width and petal length and width, respectively, for 10 flowers from each of 3 species of iris. The species are Iris setosa, versicolor, and virginica.

##    Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species
## 1           5.1         3.5          1.4         0.2  setosa
## 2           4.9         3.0          1.4         0.2  setosa
## 3           4.7         3.2          1.3         0.2  setosa
## 4           4.6         3.1          1.5         0.2  setosa
## 5           5.0         3.6          1.4         0.2  setosa
## 6           5.4         3.9          1.7         0.4  setosa
## 7           4.6         3.4          1.4         0.3  setosa
## 8           5.0         3.4          1.5         0.2  setosa
## 9           4.4         2.9          1.4         0.2  setosa
## 10          4.9         3.1          1.5         0.1  setosa

  1. What are the observational units?

  2. How many observations are there?

  3. How many variables are there?
