Before learning about different measures of center (such as mean, median,..) as well as measures of spread/variability (such as standard deviation, IQR,...) we want to learn about describing the shape, as well as the center/spread of a distribution using descriptive words.
Describing a distribution using numbers is good in that it is an objective measure, but these can also miss important features. Describing a distribution using qualitative words is good in that it can capture nuances, although it is not objecting. Using the two together can help us capture the best of both worlds. This introductory statistics video introduces terminology and descriptive words for describing the shape of a distribution.
