STA 111: Lecture 3 topic is Descriptive Statistics, specifically Data Presentation and Exploration.
The lecture is presented by E. E. E. Akarawak.
Data exploration is the initial step in data analysis and includes data presentation and summary.
Data exploration methods include tables and charts.
Reasons for data exploration include discovering anomalies, patterns, statistical assumptions violations, and avoiding future troubles.
EDA tools include tables (frequency, cross tabs) and charts/graphs (line graphs, bar charts, pie charts, histograms, stem and leaf displays, box plots).
Data exploration methods depend on the data type and measurement scale.
For qualitative data, use frequency distribution tables, simple bar charts, and pie charts, while for bivariate categorical data, use cross-tabulation and multiple bar charts.
For quantitative data, if discrete and ordinal or grouped, use frequency tables, and for continuous data, use line graphs, histograms, and box plots.
Key definitions: X = variable upon which values are taken, Frequency (f) = number of times each value appears, Relative Frequency (Rf) = each frequency divided by total frequency, Percentage (%) = Rf × 100, Cumulative Frequency (Cf) = progressive total of frequency for each category, and Cumulative Percentage (C%) = progressive total of the percentage for each category.
A frequency distribution table shows frequency, relative frequency, and percentage for each category.
A cumulative frequency distribution table shows the progressive total of frequency and percentage for each category.
Grouping is used for continuous data or discrete data with large ranges, and the data should be divided into classes.
Grouping rules: determine the largest (maximum) and smallest (minimum) observations, a frequency distribution should have a minimum of 5 classes and a maximum of 20, and each data entry must fall into one and only one class.

This quiz covers the lecture on data presentation and exploration in descriptive statistics. It includes topics such as frequency distribution for both grouped and ungrouped data, charts for univariate categorical data, and tables and charts for bivariate categorical data.
