Box Plot

This is also a certain form of math that is used in Statistics. There are five different summaries that are used when using the box plot: the smallest observation, sample minimum, lower quartile, upper quartile, and sample maximum. Anything outside of these boxes is called an outlier and that is most likely thrown out.
