What is Dot plot?

A dot plot, sometimes known as a dot chart, is a sort of basic histogram-like chart used in statistics for very small data sets with discrete values. To create a dot plot, count the number of data points in each bin and draw a stack of dots with that number of dots on top for each bin.

Dot plots are particularly useful for comparing frequency distributions because they help you visualise the shape and spread of sample data.

First the mean of the data

= (1+ 2+ 3+ 4+ 5)/ 5

= 15 /5

= 3

So, the mean is 3.

Thus, the data is skewed and there are outliers.

Hence, the mean a better center for this data.
