The frequency is the number of times an event occurs; or the number of individuals (people, animals etc.) with some specific property.

The (arithmetic) mean for a set of numerical data is the sum of the values divided by the number of values. It is a measure of central tendency representing the average of the values.

The median is the central (middle) piece of data when the data are in numerical order. It is a measure of central tendency representing the average of the values.

The mode is the most frequent value. It is a measure of central tendency representing the average of the values.

A statistical summary sums up the features of a data set. It may contain the mean, median and/or mode which measure the central tendency. It may also contain the range which measures the spread.
