Age is typically considered continuous data because it can take on any value within a given range, including fractions and decimals (e.g., 25.5 years). However, in practical scenarios, age is often recorded as discrete data when expressed in whole years. Thus, while age can be treated as continuous, it is commonly categorized as discrete in everyday use.
No. It uses continuous data. * * * * * Not true. It can use either discrete or continuous data.

1.) Discrete: restricted to integers; ordinal subjective
Yeah, what about them
Yes, the 'number of days' is considered discrete data because it represents countable values. Discrete data consists of distinct, separate values, and in this case, days can only be whole numbers (e.g., 1, 2, 3) and cannot be fractional or decimal. Therefore, it falls into the category of discrete numerical data.
Discrete data are observations on a variable that which take values from a discrete set.
The weight of the motorcycles is discrete and not the continuous data.
Any kind of graph can be used for discrete data.

time to learn a song for 4 hours, is this discrete or continuous data set?
Yes, discrete countable data is used in statistical analysis.

In maths there is discrete data and continuous data. Continuous data can be measured to any degree of accuracy, e.g. I am 1.8716749873651 metres tall. Discrete data cannot...e.g. I have 2 sisters. Discrete data cannot have halves or decimals, whole numbers only.

continuous because discrete data involve a count of items
