Data that can't be expressed in numbers is called qualitative data, which includes descriptions and observations. Color, texture, emotions, and shape are examples of qualitative data.
That means that the data consists of numbers, or represents numbers.
data are not alway numbers sometimes it have letters in it.
The way I remember it is that Quantitative data includes quantities... numbers. 3.4 m, or 57 degrees Celsius Qualitative data describes qualities... descriptions. hot, blue, longer.
