'''Central tendancy''' is the term statisticians use for any [[Statistic]] that you could quote as ''representative'' of an entire [[Data Set]].



The most commonly used measures of central tendancy are the

#[[Arithmetic Mean]], the sum of all data divided by the number of Observations in the [[Data Set]]].

#MediaN, the value that separates the highest half from the lowest half of the [[Data Set]].

#MoDe, the most common value in the [[Data Set]].
