No.

A discrete variable is a variable that can not assume all possible values within a given range.

For example, if I were to conduct a survey on the number of children people had, then my answers would be numbers such as 0, 1, 2 and so forth (i.e. they would be whole numbers). This particular variable could not have a value in between these (a non integer value), such as 1.345, as this makes no sense in this context. This makes the variable discrete.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
