Data types can be compared in terms of the amount of information they carry. Nominal data carries the least amount of information because it only represents categories or names without any order or numerical value. For example, if we are collecting data on the types of fruit people like, we can assign the categories “apple,” […]
Hey, it’s Chip! Today, let’s talk about the two types of numeric data: continuous and discrete. 🤓 Continuous data is data that can take on any value in a given range or interval. Examples of continuous data include height, weight, and temperature. 📏 For example, if you are measuring the temperature outside, you might get […]
Hey guys, it’s Chip! Today, let’s talk about the two main types of data: numeric and categorical. 🤓 Numeric data is data that can be measured on a continuous scale and can be expressed as numbers. Examples of numeric data include age, weight, height, and temperature. 🔢 For example, if you are trying to find […]
Binary data has two possible values, like “Yes/No,” “True/False,” or 0/1, often used in decision-making and programming.
Hey, it’s Chip! Today, we’re going to talk about the types of numeric data. 🤓 There are two types of numeric data: interval and ratio. 🔢 Interval data is data in which the distance between units is the same, but there is no absolute zero. 🤔 Think of the temperature scale – the distance between […]
Hey guys, it’s Chip! Today, let’s talk about categorical data and its types. 🤓 Categorical data is data that represents groups or categories. It is not measured on a continuous scale but rather is qualitative in nature. There are two main types of categorical data: nominal and ordinal. 📊 Nominal data is data in which […]
👋 Hey guys! Today, we’re talking about the mean and some of its variations. Let’s dive in! When someone says “average,” they are usually referring to the mean, which is a way of summarizing all information in a distribution. The mean takes into account all the values in the dataset, and it gives us an […]
👋 Hey guys! Today, we’re talking about the mode and how it compares to the median and mean in terms of the amount of information it provides. Let’s dive in! First, let’s talk about what the mode is. The mode is the value that appears most often in a dataset. It’s a way of describing […]
👋 Hey guys! Today, we’re talking about central tendency and the three most common ways to describe a “typical” value in a distribution. It’s an essential concept in statistics that helps us understand data better. Let’s dive in! First, let’s discuss the three most common ways to describe central tendency. These are the mean, median, […]
👋 Hey guys! Today, we’re talking about central tendency and how it helps us describe a typical value and location in a distribution. It’s an important concept in statistics that helps us understand data better. Let’s dive in! Using central tendency helps us get a quick snapshot of what a typical value and location are […]
