Descriptive statistics summarize a set of data by providing measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode) and measures of variability (range, variance, standard deviation). They do not allow for predictions beyond the data set, show how variables are related, or indicate the significance of results. Those are functions of inferential statistics.
