Descriptive statistics: mean, median, range and mode set with repetitions kept

For the observation list D=(4,10,1,3,8,1,6,3), keeping repeated values, find the number of observations n, the arithmetic mean, the median, the range and the mode set under this entry's convention; prove the general fact 'minimum ≤ mean ≤ maximum' and use it as a check; finally show that deduplicating first would give a different (wrong) mean and median.
