Statistics on a TI-86...PLEASE HELP!!

Ok I really need some help bad. I can not figure out how to do basic statistics on my ti-86.

For example we have to find the following with these numbers:
10 16 17 25 26 28 28 30 32 57
Mean:
Median:
lower Quartile:
Upper Quartile:
IQR:
Inner Fences:
Outer Fences:

I know that it is possible to enter all of those numbers into the calculator, but I dont know how to.

I think it is 2nd STAT, then the EDIT menu, and I enter all of the numbers in, but I am not sure where.

If anyone has any knowledge in this please help me.

Thank you
Eddie
 
Unless there is a mode() function, or menu options that list such things, you might need a third party program to do all that.

Check out TICalc
 
I don't think the TI-86 has some of those stats function, the Ti83 does. But try looking for "1-Var Stats" on your calc by looking in the catalog.
 
I know it's hard for some of us geeks to do, but RTFM. There's an entire chapter dedicated to statistics with step-by-step instructions on how to enter data and calculate statistics on them.
 
I did read the manual, and that just made me even more confused. I asked the teacher today, and I got it figured out.

Thanks for you help.
