An 'Undefined Mean' occurs when attempting to calculate the average of a dataset that lacks defined numerical values or is empty, making it impossible to determine a central tendency. This situation often arises in datasets with non-numeric entries or missing data points, where traditional arithmetic operations cannot be applied.

Central tendency is a statistical measure that identifies a single value as representative of an entire dataset, providing a summary of the data's center point. The most common measures of central tendency are the mean, median, and mode, each offering different insights into the data's distribution and characteristics.
