While the mean and standard deviation are dimensional quantities (this is why we will take the square root of the variance ) that is, have the same units as the measured quantities \(x_{i}\), the skewness is conventionally defined in such a way as to make it nondimensional.

Left-skewed distributions show the mean lower than the median, which is lower than the mode, while right-skewed distributions have the mode lower than the median and median lower than the mean. Skewness quantifies a distribution's asymmetry and points to the tail's direction, with negative values indicating left skew and positive values indicating right skew.

While the mean and standard deviation are dimensionalquantities (this is why we will take the square root of the variance ) that is, have the same units as the measured quantities \(\mathrm{X}_{i}\), the skewness is conventionally defined in such a way as to make it nondimensional.
