Box Plot (Box and Whisker Plot)

Definition: A graph that displays the distribution of numerical data by showing the quartiles, median, and potential outliers.

VIDEO WATCHING TIPS:  Embedded videos will start at a lower resolution (making the video seem blurry) but typically improve in 10-15 seconds. Once the video is playing you can also select to watch at a higher resolution by selecting the gear icon, the quality drop down menu, then 720p. For a clear video you can also watch on YouTube.
