when you do stat, calc, L1 and it gives you a bunch of data, which one is which?
What does Mean look like? is is X with the Line __ over it?
What does Range look like?

Yes, mean = X bar (line on top)
Range is (maxX - minX) . . .you work it out from minX and maxX, both of which are given (on the TI-83)
Variance is the square of the standard deviation - work it out from Sᵪ
Mode is the most frequent reading in your list - not all calculators give this, so you should look through your list to find it (sorting the list first helps).

the above are some links to tables and discussions of symbols and notation in statistics. if you would like to find more material on this topic, try a yahoo search for "statistics math (symbols OR notation)" or some similar operands. you can try contacting the company and/or author of the statistical package that you are using. you can also try contacting a professor who teaches statistics and ask them what texts, websites and/or articles they suggest.
