More Information

Frequency distribution helps summarize how often each language appears in the dataset. It’s a useful way to visualize the data and can assist in identifying trends or preferences among languages.

Tips

  • Forgetting to count correctly: Ensure all instances of each language are counted accurately.
  • Not checking for languages not listed: Remember to note any languages that do not appear and record their frequency as zero.
