If we calculated the mean of these lengths of wood, then we could express the stack of wood as having either an average length of 46.8 centimeters, or the error scores as having a mean constant error of –3.2 centimeters. The measure of variability of these error scores (called the variable error) represents the deviation of the error score for each log relative to the mean constant error and ...
