Outliers are basically numbers, in a set of numbers, that don't belong in that set and/or that stand out. For example, in the data set {3, 5, 4, 4, 6, 2, 25, 5, 6, 2} the value of 25 is an outlier.
For a set of numerical data (a set of numbers), any value (number) that is markedly smaller or larger than other values is an outlier. This is the qualitative definition.
Mathematically, a quantitative definition often given is that an outliers is any number that is more than 1.5 times the interquartile range away from the median. However, this is not definitive and in some cases other definitions will be used.
