Outliers:

 

   Sometimes, when we analyze the data, one value is very extreme from the others. Such value is referred as outliers. This could be due to two reasons. Firstly, the value obtained may be due to chance; in that case, we should keep that value in final analysis as the value is from the same distribution. Secondly, it may be due to mistake. Causes may be listed as typographical or measurement errors. In such cases, these values should be deleted, to avoid invalid results.
