 QC requires a thorough understanding of the statistical measurements that are encountered when reading scientific literature. Refer to the following list if clarification is needed.
-**Mean **- The average of a set of numbers. This measure can be combined across populations if there are two means reported. This is NOT the same thing as Least Square (LS) mean.

-**Median**  - The middle value of a listed set of numbers. This measure can not be combined or used as a mean.
-**Standard Deviation (SD)**  - A measure of the amount of variance within a set of numbers. Typically reported with a mean value using the symbol '**±'**
-**Standard Error (SE)**  - The standard deviation of a sample of the larger population. This is NOT the same thing as SD and should not be used in replacement of SD.
-**Range**  - The difference between the highest and lowest numbers in a given set. Typically given alongside the median.
-**Interquartile Range (IQR)**  - The difference between the upper and lower quartiles. This is NOT the same thing as Range and should not be used as a replacement.
