Syntactical Statistics

Let's take this phrase, for example:

Obviously a drawing of a person is not a real person, but a drawing of a word is a real word.





Determining the Mode:

1 occurrence) Obviously; not ; but

2 occurrences) drawing, drawing ; of, of ; person, person ; is, is ; real, real ; word, word

3 occurrences) N/A

4 occurrences) N/A

5 occurrences) N/A

6 occurrences) a, a, a, a, a, a

>>>>Therefore, the Mode is "2"





Determining the Median:

a, a, a, a, a, a, but, drawing, drawing, is, is, not, obviously, of, of, person, person, real, real, word, word

>>>>21 words total

>>>>Therefore, the Median is "is"





Determining the Average:

a + a + a + a + a + a + but + drawing + drawing + is + is + not + obviously + of + of + person + person + real + real + word + word (divided by) 21

>>>>Therefore, the Average is Obviously a drawing of a person is not a real person, but a drawing of a word is a real word, divided by twenty-one.





Determining the Range:

"Obviously" has 9 characters

"a" has 1 character

>>>>Therefore, the Range is 9 (minus) 1 = 8
