About this lesson
More videos looking at the Data and Statistics section of the General Mathematics course. Having looked at Histograms, I thought it was time to look at how you can describe the shape, location and spread of a histogram. Why? Well, it's going to become very important as time goes on! Particularly in later courses. I do a number of worked examples and show you what to look for when considering the shape, location and spread of data. All with my own brand of Maffsguru humour and teaching!
