The mean, or average, was 5.79. The only numbers that I omitted wereNow back to Jamyhawk: I am amazed at the number of hours. Under 6 hours of sleep for most people that are playing for fun or little extra cash. That seems crazy. We even had one with 3 hours a night? ? ? C'mon Riggs, that can't be healthy. And of course: congratulations to Smokkee who seems to be eating his cake and having it too. 9 hours of sleep a night. I don't even get 9 hours when catching up on the weekends.
the 9 the 8, however the 8 had a response as to when they were working,
so I used that response of 4.5. So the mean was 5.79. The median,
(the middle term of all the terms), was 6. The standard deviation was
.95. That means that from 5.79-.95 to 5.79+.95 approximately 68% of the data falls in there.
5.79-2(.95) to 5.79+2(.95) approximately 95% of the data falls there.
With the outliers of 9 and 8 hours, the avg becomes 6.17 hours and
changes everything else around a little bit more.
Hope everyone enjoyed the little survey. I'll try another one soon.
My son Cal qualified for State in the 200 meter open, as expected. Top 16 runners in the state go at it this Friday and Saturday. Run Cal Run.

I'm too tired to post any more (4 1/2 hours last night for me).
Stay patient. . . or maybe I should say: Get some rest.

I even took stats in college and don't know what to make of those numbers... other than I either need to get more sleep or there needs to be more hours in the day.
I'm with willwonka! I want more hours in the day! Or maybe I should try and sleep more. Could be why I feel tired.
That whole thing turned out pretty interesting. I enjoyed the responses as they came in and the results. Nice job!
Thanks for the plug!
4 kids, work, and poker make for no sleep... and I aint complaining!
