I don't know, but if they asked for the funniest way to describe the changes, I'd go with interpretive dance. That would really capture the essence of the data, don't you think?

The average? Really? That's like trying to describe a roller coaster by its average height. Not very useful, is it?

Hmm, the median could be interesting, since it's less affected by outliers than the average. I'll have to think about that one.

I'm not sure, but the range might be a good choice too. It shows the difference between the highest and lowest values.

I think the standard deviation is the best way to describe the changes in the values. It gives a good measure of how much the values vary from the mean.
