CSV Descriptive Statistics
Summary statistics for every column in a CSV file: N, missing, mean, SD and more.
Summary statistics
A column counts as numeric when at least 80% of its non-missing values are numbers. Blank cells and NA, N/A, NaN, null, none, "." and "-" are treated as missing. SD is the sample standard deviation and quartiles use linear interpolation (Excel QUARTILE.INC).
