Some variables in the data set might be qualitative, others might not.

For example, if one were to sample newly arrived immigrants to Toronto, Canada and create a data set of information about them one could include both qualitative and quantitative data. One might measure each person's height which would be quantitative, and observe each person's eye colour, which would be qualitative.
