The video distinguishes them by their probability spread. A uniform distribution assigns equal likelihood to all events across its interval, resulting in a flat, rectangular graph.
Conditions: Comparing a continuous uniform distribution with a normal distribution.

The standard deviation of a continuous uniform distribution on the interval [a, b] is calculated using the formula σ=12b−a. It is derived by dividing the width of the interval by the square root of 12.
Conditions: The distribution is continuous and uniform on the interval [a, b].; b is the upper bound and a is the lower bound.

The mean and standard deviation have no predictive power for a uniform distribution because every event within the support interval is equally likely to occur. Unlike distributions that cluster around a central value, a uniform distribution spreads probability evenly, so summary statistics do not single out any specific outcome as more probable.
Conditions: The distribution is uniform.; All outcomes within the support interval are equally likely.
