SKEWNESS AND KURTOSIS

SKEWNESS AND KURTOSIS

By WIKTORIA KORYGA (Predictive Solutions) Kurtosis and skewness are measures of asymmetry that describe such properties as the shape and asymmetry of the distribution under analysis. They provide us with information on how the values of the variables deviate when...
