The range of a data set can be defined as the gap between the highest and the lowest values. It serves as an elementary indicator of the dispersion or variability within the data. To compute the range, one simply needs to deduct the smallest value from the greatest value present in the set. It's a useful tool in grasping the concept of data dispersion.
