Summarize my data for non-technical readers. Dataset and meaning of variables: [DATASET_DESCRIPTION]. Output of describe() or a summary table: [PASTE_SUMMARY]. Audience and purpose: [AUDIENCE_AND_PURPOSE]. Write: 1. A one-paragraph overview (80 to 120 words) with typical values (median rather than mean when skewed, and why), spread, and what stands out. 2. A table of key numbers: Variable | Typical value | Range | Notes, rounded sensibly. 3. Three plain-language findings, each with the number that supports it and a caution. 4. A plot recommendation for each finding. 5. A glossary of the five terms I used (median, quartile, standard deviation, range, outlier) in one sentence each, with an everyday example. 6. A list of things the data cannot tell us. Rules: no jargon without a definition; use the same units throughout; never present a mean without saying if the data is skewed; mark estimated values as estimates. Round to a sensible number of digits, give units for every figure, and put the single most important number in the first sentence.
