How Statistics Calculator works

  1. Enter numbers into the input box, separated by commas, semicolons, or new lines.
  2. Check the 'numbers detected' count to confirm how many valid values were parsed.
  3. Review all 13 statistics — count, sum, mean, median, mode, min, max, range, variance, standard deviation, Q1, Q3, and IQR — in the results panel.
  4. Click Copy to copy every statistic as labeled text to your clipboard.
  5. Edit the number list at any time; results recalculate instantly.
  • Quickly summarize a small dataset (survey scores, test results, measurements) without opening a spreadsheet.
  • Check the spread of exam scores using standard deviation and IQR before deciding on a grading curve.
  • Paste a column of numbers copied from a spreadsheet to get instant descriptive statistics.
  • Compare the mean and median of a dataset to spot skew caused by outliers.
  • Verify a manual statistics calculation for a homework or reporting task.

All numbers and calculations are processed locally in your browser using JavaScript. Nothing is sent to a server.

  • Calculates population standard deviation and variance (divides by n), not sample statistics (n-1) — a distinction that matters for inferential analysis.
  • Quartiles use a simple index-based method that can differ slightly from Excel, R, or other software using different quartile conventions.
  • Non-numeric entries are silently dropped rather than flagged, so double-check the detected count matches your expected input size.

Statistics Calculator

Statistics Calculator accepts a list of numbers (comma or newline separated) and computes 13 descriptive statistics: count, sum, mean, median, mode, min, max, range, variance, standard deviation, Q1, Q3, and IQR. All calculations are done in pure JavaScript with no server required.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How is mode calculated?

The mode is the value(s) that appear most frequently. If all values appear the same number of times (no value repeats more than any other), 'No mode' is shown. If multiple values tie for most frequent, up to three are displayed.

What is IQR?

IQR (Interquartile Range) is Q3 minus Q1 — the range of the middle 50% of values. It is a robust measure of spread that is not affected by extreme outliers, unlike range or standard deviation.

Does this calculate population or sample standard deviation?

It calculates population standard deviation (dividing by n, not n-1). If you need sample standard deviation for inferential statistics, that distinction matters and you'll need to adjust manually.

How are quartiles (Q1, Q3) calculated?

Q1 and Q3 use a simple index-based method on the sorted list: Q1 is the value at position n/4 and Q3 is at position 3n/4 (rounded down). This is one of several valid quartile methods and may differ slightly from spreadsheet software using a different convention.

What separators can I use between numbers?

Commas, semicolons, and newlines are all accepted as separators, and you can mix them freely — for example pasting a column of numbers copied from a spreadsheet works directly.

What happens if I include non-numeric text?

Any entry that doesn't parse as a valid number is silently filtered out before calculating statistics. The 'numbers detected' count below the input shows how many valid numbers were actually found.

Can I copy all the results at once?

Yes — the Copy button copies all 13 statistics as labeled text lines, ready to paste into a report, spreadsheet, or chat message.
