A comic-strip writer churns out different numbers of comic strips each day. The writer logged the number of comic strips he wrote each day for 16 days and sorted the data in ascending order to create this data set.

{1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 8}

The skew in the distribution is negativepositivesymmetricalzero. If the writer writes for two more days and creates 5 and 7 comic strips, respectively, the difference of the mean and the median for the new data set is 1.2 0.750.660.28.
