Title: The Calculation and Application of the Gini Coefficient
Abstract: This paper calculates the Lorenz curve and Gini coefficient by the way of integral,aims at using the principle of the Gini coefficient to analyze the distribution of the students' score in a certain major and attempts to figure out the related advantages and disanvantages caused when the Gini coefficient is too big or too small.Lorenz curve is drawn up and Gini coefficient is calculated based on 232 sample data so as to analyze the above mentioned distribution.It is suggested in the paper that as educaters,we should take appropriate measures to adjust the Gini coefficient so that better results can be achieved.
