It sounds to me like you are supposed to compute those values without using octave's mean, median, mode and standard deviation functions. i.e. your assignment is to develop replacements for octave's mean, median, mode functions etc. You can compare your code's results to octave's results for correctness. Your class notes or introductory statistics textbook should describe how to compute the statistics. That's where you need to start.
Also, every time I try and make a loop out of anything more than 20 entries,
it turns it into a log file or something that I can't do anything with. I'm
not sure what to do :\
When the output is larger than can displayed in a screen, it is displayed one screen full at a time. You can turn this off by typing "pager off" and turn it back on by typing "pager on".
Good luck!
