R Programming for Statistics and Data Science - Skewness

The video tutorial introduces the concept of skewness, a measure of asymmetry in data distribution. It explains positive, zero, and negative skewness with examples, highlighting how skewness affects the mean, median, and mode. The importance of skewness in understanding data distribution is discussed, linking it to central tendency and probability theory. The lesson concludes with a preview of the next topic, standard deviation.
