Study Notes
- Qualitative variables describe information without using numbers, such as color, taste, occupation, gender, and preference.
- Quantitative variables measure information using numeric skills, such as height, number of siblings, speed of a car, temperature, number of students in a classroom, and amount of shirts in a drawer.
- Discrete variables are a type of quantitative variable that can be counted using integral values, such as number of siblings, number of students in a classroom, and amount of shirts in a drawer.
- Continuous variables are a type of quantitative variable that can assume any numerical values over an interval or intervals, such as height, speed of a car, and temperature.
- The classification of variables includes qualitative and quantitative variables, with quantitative variables further divided into discrete and continuous variables.
