You find the the smallest and largest values. The interval is the largest minus the smallest.
It is the largest value less the smallest one.
The range.
If possible, find the largest and smallest possible values of the variable under study. Then the range = Largest Value minus Smallest Value.
RangeThe term for the difference between the smallest and the largest values in a set of data is called the range. It is probably derived from the idea that the values of the numbers in the data could range anywhere from the lowest to the highest values but not beyond. The range is a measure of how disperse (spread out) the values are but it is not a very powerful measure.

Span
The smallest value is -32,768 and the maximum is 32,767
It is the largest value less the smallest one.
The range.
final double[] ns = new double[10]; final Random rnd = new Random(System.currentTimeMillis()); // Fill... for (int i = 0; i < ns.length; ++i) { ns[i] = rnd.nextDouble(); } // Get largest/smallest... double largest = Double.MIN_VALUE; double smallest = Double.MAX_VALUE; for (double n : ns) { if (n > largest) { largest = n; } if (n < smallest) { smallest = n; } } // largest and smallest are now the proper values.
If possible, find the largest and smallest possible values of the variable under study. Then the range = Largest Value minus Smallest Value.
take the largest number in the sample and subtract the smallest number that is the range
The mean of the 10th and 11th values
The mean of the 6th and 7th values
The mean of the 3rd and 4th values
The mean of the 19th and 20th values
