Quartile Deviation<\/strong><\/p>\n

The quartile deviation is the absolute measure of dispersion. It is computed by dividing the difference between the top and bottom quartiles in half.<\/p>\n

The quartile deviation is the absolute measure of dispersion, where dispersion is the amount by which the values in the distribution differ from the mean value.<\/p>\n

Even if there is only one exceptionally high or low value in the data, the range’s utility as a measure of dispersion is reduced or diminished.<\/p>\n

To calculate the quartile deviation, we must divide the data into four portions, each of which has 25% of the values.<\/p>\n

The quartile deviation of the data is computed by dividing the difference between the top (75%) and bottom (25%) quartiles by half.<\/p>\n

Implementation:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let’s look at how to use Python to calculate a dataset’s quartile deviation.<\/p>\n

To compute it in Python, first, create a dataset, then find the quartile1, quartile2, and quartile3 from the data, and last create a function that returns the product of half the difference between quartile3 and quartile1.<\/p>\n
