Robust in statistics:
A test is robust if it still provides in sight into a problem despite having its assumptions altered or violated.
* Range, mean, and standard deviation are very sensitive to outliers.
Since the median is the middle value of an ordered dataset, it is ROBUST to outliers.

Inscribed vs Circumscribed
Inscribed: A polygon is inscribed in a circle if all of its vertices lie on the circle
Circumscribed: A polygon is circumscribed about a circle, if each of its sides is tangent to the circle.
What is an inflection point? and
What occurs in an inflection point?
Def: a point of a curve at which a change in the direction of curvature occurs.
