MACHINE-IMPLEMENTED METHOD AND AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR GRAPHICALLY ILLUSTRATING A STATISTICAL DISPLAY BASED ON A SET OF NUMERICAL DATA, AND A COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT

摘要

An electronic device is for graphically illustrating a statistical display based on a set of numerical data. The electronic device includes a computing unit, a plot generating unit, and an output unit. The computing unit is for computing a geometric mean of the set of numerical data and a first generalized mean with a first non-zero exponent of the set of numerical data. The plot generating unit is coupled to the computing unit for generating a plot with reference to the geometric mean and the first generalized mean computed by the computing unit. The plot has first and second indications that are aligned in an axis direction, and that respectively correspond to the first generalized mean and the geometric mean. The output unit is coupled to the plot generating unit for outputting the plot for viewing by a user.
