Hi,
Found below sentence from Answers.com : statistic: Definition from Answers.com
A numerical value, such as standard deviation or mean, that characterizes the sample or population from which it was derived.
If remove "from" from above sentence, does the meaning has any changes??
As in : A numerical value, such as standard deviation or mean, that characterizes the sample or population which it was derived.
In my opinion, it is the same without the "from" before "which", I cannot feel any changes of the meaning.
Thanks.
