Drawing a Med-Med Graph
When you suspect that the data contains extreme values, you should use the Med-Med
graph (which is based on medians) in place of the linear regression graph. Med-Med graph is
similar to the linear regression graph, but it also minimizes the effects of extreme values.

Tip
• When specifying a list of frequency values, make sure that the list contains positive integers only.
Non-integer values (such as those with a decimal part) cause an error during statistical
calculations.
