gollark: It's harder for continuous distributions and I forgot how to actually work out the mean. But the mean is one of the things you would call an average.
gollark: There's only one mean. For a distribution.
gollark: For a discrete thing, you just add all your datapoints and divide by how many there are.
gollark: Median might not actually be the right term either, but it's probably close enough.
gollark: There are two *medians*. There are not two *means*. This is why I said "mean" and not "average" a lot.
