The video tutorial covers the shapes of distributions and how to describe them using appropriate measures of center and variation. It reviews the calculation of mean, median, and mode, and discusses the impact of outliers on the mean. The tutorial explains symmetric and skewed distributions, and the appropriate measures to use for each. It concludes with a summary of the key points discussed.

What is the main focus of the lesson on shapes of distribution?

• Discussing the importance of data privacy
