You can calculate the mean, median, and std dev for discrete or continuous data. Each type has its own set of formulas.
Non-continuous data is called discrete data.
Non-continuous data is called discrete data.
analog data are continuous and take continuous values
The weight of the motorcycles is discrete and not the continuous data.
ways of presenting data in statistics
In statistics, cases are comprised of the data that is being studies. The cases in statistics can be updated frequently as the data changes.
In continuous grouped data the data is collected continuously and in groups. Data collected is in class intervals the actual data values are not visible.
No. It uses continuous data. * * * * * Not true. It can use either discrete or continuous data.
