Range is a measure of dispersion of a set of observations.

Let $S$ be a set of observations of a quantitative variable.

The range of $S$ is defined as:

$\map R S := \map \max S - \map \min S$

where $\map \max S$ and $\map \min S$ are the greatest value of $S$ and the least value of $S$ respectively.
