gollark: But this might be better with an example. Say you were learning about people's heights, by asking lots of people how tall they are and recording it.
gollark: It's *also* the SI prefix for a millionth.
gollark: It is, I think, mostly orthogonal to what you're doing at school, so you could probably learn about these statistical things, if not the calculus-based parts.
