Thank You, Martin Crutsinger, AP Economics Writer
For once, someone is sensitive to the fact that I can never remember the difference between the mathematical terms mean, median, and mode. From this article, New Home Sales Fall for Fourth Straight Month; at 13-Year Low in February:
The median price of a home sold last month dropped to $244,100, 2.7 percent less than the level of a year ago. The median sales price is the point where half the homes sold for more and half for less.
Wasn’t that nice?

KY,
What’s so tough about remembering those terms? Mean are the kind of people who suck, median is the middle part of the road you shouldn’t cross over, and mode is a kind of pie.
