What is the difference between mean, median, and mode?
The mean is the average of all numbers. The median is the middle value when the numbers are sorted. The mode is the value or values that appear most often.
Calculate averages, quartiles, percentiles, spread, deviation, frequency, distribution, and possible outliers.

Summary
Statistics appear when the input contains at least one valid finite number.
The mean is the average of all numbers. The median is the middle value when the numbers are sorted. The mode is the value or values that appear most often.
Use sample standard deviation when your numbers are a sample drawn from a larger population, which is the more common case. Use population standard deviation only when your list is the entire population.
The mode is shown as "None" since every value appears exactly once.
Q1 is the median of the lower half of the sorted data and Q3 is the median of the upper half. The interquartile range, or IQR, is Q3 minus Q1 and describes the spread of the middle half.
The calculator uses the common 1.5 × IQR rule and flags values below Q1 minus 1.5 IQR or above Q3 plus 1.5 IQR. A flag does not prove a value is wrong.
A percentile estimates the value at or below which a selected percentage of the sorted observations falls. For example, the 90th percentile is near the upper end of the data.
