A comprehensive visual guide into skewness /kurtosis and how they effect distributions and ultimately, your data science project. Skewness is a key statistical measure that shows how data is spread out in a dataset . It tells us if the data points are skewed to the left (negative skew) or to the right (positive skew) in relation to the mean. Skewness is the degree to which points of data deviate from a normal distribution away from the average or mean.
