10 Does the distribution have one or more peaks (modes) or is it unimodal?
Is the distribution approximately symmetric or is it skewed in one direction? Is it skewed to the right (right tail longer) or left?

12 Example Description Shape: The distribution is roughly symmetric with a single peak in the center. Center: You can see from the histogram that the midpoint is not far from The actual data shows that the midpoint is 114. Spread: The spread is from 80 to about There are no outliers or other strong deviations from the symmetric, unimodal pattern.
