"We are called to be architects of the future, not its victims."

"Make the world work for 100% of humanity in the shortest possible time through spontaneous cooperation without ecological offense or the disadvantage of anyone."

Descriptive Statistics (some key terms)

 Central Tendency
is the central location or defining quality of a set of data; a quality that indicates the “likelihood” of future behavior or events.


"Tendency." Merriam-Webster.com. Merriam-Webster, n.d. Web. 25 Apr. 2014. .






Outliers
are points in a set of data that are far apart from the center, a.k.a. (extremes).
Literature Connections:
