Descriptive statistics methods

There are 3 main types of descriptive statistics:

• The distribution concerns the frequency of each value.
• The central tendency concerns the averages of the values.

Descriptive Statistics Methods Here are some of the key methods used in descriptive statistics: Tabulation This method involves arranging data into a table format, making it easier to understand and interpret. Tables often show the frequency distribution of variables. Graphical RepresentationDescriptive statistics consists of three basic categories of measures: measures of central tendency, measures of variability (or spread), and frequency distribution. Measures of central tendency describe the center of the data set (mean, median, mode). Measures of variability describe the dispersion of the data set (variance, standard deviation).
