Descriptive statistics enable you to compare various measures across the different variables. These include mean, mode, standard deviation, etc. There are many kinds of graphical summary methods, such as histograms and boxplots.

Histograms and Skewed Distributions
Histograms are an excellent tool for identifying the shape of your distribution. So far, we’ve been looking at symmetric distributions Using Histograms to Identify Outliers
Histograms are a handy way to identify outliers. In an instant, you’ll see if there are any unusual values. If you identify potential outliers, investigate them Identifying Multimodal Distributions with Histograms
All the previous histograms display unimodal distributions because they have only one peak. A multimodal distribution has more than one peak Using Histograms to Identify Subpopulations
Sometimes these multimodal distributions reflect the actual distribution of the phenomenon that you’re studying. In other words Using Histograms to Assess The Fit of A Probability Distribution Function
Analysts can overlay a fitted line for a probability distribution function on their histogram. Here’s a quick distinction between the two: 1 Using Histograms to Compare Distributions Between Groups
To compare distributions between groups using histograms, you’ll need both a continuous variable and a categorical grouping variable Histograms and Sample Size
As fantastic as histograms are for exploring your data Using Hypothesis Tests in Conjunction with Histograms
As you’ve seen in this post, histograms can illustrate the distribution of groups as well as differences between groups. However Hypothesis Tests For Histograms
Use the following hypothesis tests in conjunction with histograms when you are comparing groups: 2-sample t-test: Assess the equality of two
