    – Interquartile range
    – variance
    – standard deviation

    The absolute Measures of Dispersion are :
    1. Range : The interval in which values of a dataset lie. Range is generally the difference between largest and the smallest value of the variable.
    2. Quartile Deviation: It is half of the difference between First and Third quartile ((Q3-Q1)/2).
    3. Variance: It gives us the info about how far the data is spread from its mean.
    4. Standard Deviation: It is the positive square root of the variance.
    5. Mean Deviation: It shows how far on average are all the values from the median.

    The different measures of dispersion are:
    1. Range: It is the interval in which the values of a variable lie within. It is the difference between the largest and the smallest value of that variable
    2. Quartile Deviation: It is half the difference between the Third and First quartile. ((Q3-Q1)/2).
    3. Standard Deviation: It is the positive square root of the variance. Variance tells us how far the data is spread around the mean.
    4. Mean Deviation: It tells us how far are all the values from the median.

    Absolute Measure of Dispersion gives an idea about the amount of dispersion/ spread in the data set.

    Absolute Measures of dispersion are :

    1.Range -the difference between the largest and smallest values of the variable.
    example – 10,15,20,5,40,50
    Range =50-5
    = 45
    The range is easy to calculate and easy to understand but it gives a rough answer and is not based on all observations.

    2. Inter Quartile Range – (Q3-Q1)

    3. Standard deviation -The Standard Deviation is the positive square root of the mean of the square deviations taken from arithmetic mean of the data.

    4. Mean Deviation – It is an average of the absolute values of the deviation from the mean.
