gollark: The "average", but mean is more precise since people sometimes mean median and such.

gollark: Sort of like the average distance from the mean, but it weights further away ones more highly.

gollark: It's a measurement of how far values in a dataset are from its mean, basically.

gollark: Also, to understand the statement of the principle itself it would be helpful if you knew what standard deviations were, which I assume you do not.

gollark: To actually understand why it exists, I believe you need maths to something something wavefunctions.
