Skewness is a measure of symmetry, or more precisely, the lack of symmetry. A distribution, or data set, is symmetric if it looks the same to the left and right of the center point.
Kurtosis is a measure of whether the data are peaked or flat relative to a normal distribution.

What are the formulas in probability?
There are many, many formulae:for different probability distribution functions,for cumulative distribution functions,for moment generating functions,for means, variances, skewness, kurtosis and higher moments.There are many, many formulae:for different probability distribution functions,for cumulative distribution functions,for moment generating functions,for means, variances, skewness, kurtosis and higher moments.There are many, many formulae:for different probability distribution functions,for cumulative distribution functions,for moment generating functions,for means, variances, skewness, kurtosis and higher moments.There are many, many formulae:for different probability distribution functions,for cumulative distribution functions,for moment generating functions,for means, variances, skewness, kurtosis and higher moments.
If coefficient of skewness equals 0 then what would you say about the skewness of the distribution?
if coefficient of skewness is zero then distribution is symmetric or zero skewed.
What is the difference between Dispersion and Skewness?
distinguish between dispersion and skewness
How do you calculate skewness?
Skewness is measured as the third standardised moment of the random variable. Skewness is the expected value of {[X - E(X)]/sd(X)}3 where sd(X) = sqrt(Variance of X)
What does the term kurtosis mean?
The Greek word "kurtosis", when translated to English, means the probability theory of any measure of the "peakedness" of a real valued random variable.
