summary statistics of the log of pH and the log of residual sugar as well as the chlorides in red wine.

What could be said about the analysis of these three variables in terms of distrubution?

Explanation / Answer

Bowley's coefficient of skewness:-

Sk=(Q3-2Q2+Q1)/(Q3-Q1)

Besides, Range = (max - min)

For pH, Sk = -0.0689655. ie.. the distribution of pH is negatively skewed and Range = 0.381

For Residual Sugar, Sk = 0.06505102. ie.. the distribution of Residual Sugar is positively skewed and Range = 2.8464

For Chlorides, Sk = 0.1,   ie.. the distribution of Chlorides is positively skewed and Range = 0.599

Distribution of Residual Sugar is more dispersed than the distribution of pH & the distribution of Chlorides ....

as, sd(Residual Sugar) > sd(Chlorides) > sd(pH)

If you are satisfied please give rating and leave comments......

Thank you.....
