A most surprising & little-known results in statistics is that the mean (μ) and median (m) are within a std deviation (σ)

|μ−m| ≤ σ

for unimodal densities bound is even tighter

|μ−m| ≤ 0.7756 σ

This beautiful results first appeared in a 1932 paper by Hotelling & Solomons

1/27 So after having been in one too many Twitter discussions about renewable share in energy grids, I decided to finally write a 🧵on the subject, trying to collect what I have learned in the last decade, so I can link to this in further discussions.

Such a great article… when working with researchers you meet them where they are, and that frequently includes data coming from spreadsheets.
