Summary
[edit]This graphic represents the four datasets defined by Francis Anscombe for which some of the usual statistical properties (mean, variance, correlation and regression line) are the same, even though the datasets are different.
Property | Value |
---|---|
Mean of each variable | 9.0 |
Variance of each variable | 11.0 |
Mean of each variable | 7.5 |
Variance of each variable | 4.12 |
Correlation between each and variable | 0.816 |
Regression line |
The graph was created by User:Schutz for Wikipedia on 13 June 2006 (and updated on 29 March 2010), using the R statistical project. The program that generated the graphic is given below; it is based on the example provided with the help page of the R dataset anscombe (accessible using the command data(anscombe); help and more information about the dataset is available using the command help(anscombe)), and was slightly modified to improve the result. The graph was directly exported in SVG format.
