With data values = 3,7,8,5,12,14,21,13,18, the calculator gives minimum ≈ 3; maximum ≈ 21; range ≈ 18; midrange ≈ 12.
Frequently asked questions
What is the range, midrange and outliers calculator used for?
Find range, midrange and potential outliers. It helps with questions such as “data spread”, “minimum and maximum”, “midrange”.
What is the formula for the range, midrange and outliers calculation?
Minimum = lo(d). Maximum = hi(d). Range = [Maximum]-[Minimum]. Midrange = ([Minimum]+[Maximum]) / 2. Here d is data values.
What inputs do I need for the range, midrange and outliers calculator?
You need data values. Each field is pre-filled with a typical example so you can see how the result responds as you edit the numbers.
How do I use the range, midrange and outliers calculator?
Type values into the input fields. Results and the chart update instantly. Use Reset to restore the example values, Copy results to paste them elsewhere, or Share to copy a link that preserves your inputs.
Is the range, midrange and outliers result exact?
Calculations use standard formulas and double-precision arithmetic, then display about seven significant figures. Real-world measurements carry uncertainty, so treat results as estimates unless your inputs are exact.
