Six sigma basic statistical introduction
Minimum (Min) and Maximum
(Max)
- Always sort the data before do the statistical, this can make it more clear.
-
- Minset1=12 ; Maxset1=22
- Minset2=15 ; Maxset2=24
- Microsoft Excel function:
- Minimum: =min(numbers)
- Maximum: =max(numbers)
Range (R)
- Range is the biggest different of the data.
- Theefore,
- Range = Maximum - Minimum
- Rangeset1=Maxset1 - Minset1
- = 22 - 12
- = 10
- Range = Maximum - Minimum
- Rangeset2=Maxset2 - Minset2
- = 24 - 15
- = 9
- Microsoft Excel function:
- Range: =Mmx(numbers)
- min(numbers)
Median (M)
First at all, find the value at the medium position. Use the total number of the sample/2. - If the total number of the sample is odd , take only one value. Example: 11,12,12,15,16
- Median number position = (total number of sample +1) / 2
- = (5+1)/2
- = 3
- The medium position is at the 3rd. So, the median is 12.
- If the total number of the sample is even , take only two number and get the average. Example: 12,14,14,15,15,16,16,17,18,22)
- Median number position = (total number of sample +1) / 2
- = 11/2
- = 5.5
- The medium position is at the 5th and 6th.
- So, the median value is (15 + 16)/2 which is 15.5
- Microsoft Excel function:
- Median: =median(numbers)
