===Meaning===
An '''anomaly''' is an unusual [[Results|result]] that does not fit the pattern formed by the rest of the [[results]].
===About Anomalies===
: '''Anomalies''' may be caused by [[Experimental Error|experimental errors]] such as an [[Control Variable|uncontrolled variable]].
: An [[anomaly]] can be spotted by looking for a pattern in the [[results]] and any [[results]] that don't fit that pattern.
: An [[anomaly]] may become clear from a [[graph]] of [[results]] where it is easier to see the pattern.
