Range

Range, in general knowledge, refers to the difference between the highest and lowest values in a set of data. For example, if you have test scores ranging from 50 to 90, the range is 90 minus 50, which equals 40. This metric provides insight into the spread or variability within the data, helping to understand how much variation exists. A larger range indicates more diversity among the values, while a smaller range suggests that the values are more similar to each other. It’s a useful tool in statistics to assess the distribution of data points.
