# Summary Statistics

Mito's column summary statistics are a quick and easy way of understanding column data. By default, Mito displays a histogram of the frequency of values in the column along with the result of using the .describe pandas function.

To access Mito's Summary Statistics, open the **column control panel** by clicking on the **filter icon** in the column header, and then selecting the **Summary Statistics tab**.
