A discontinuous variable is a variable that has distinct categories. Blood type is a good example. You could be A, B, AB or O. This contrasts with a continuous variable such as height or weight, where there are an almost infinite number of possible values.
Data for discontinuous variables is usually represented using a bar graph or pie chart, but never a scatter graph.

∙ 11y agoA discrete variable can only have specific values (often integers), and nothing in between. A continuous variable can not only have (for example) the value of two consecutive integers, but also anything in between.

What are the different kinds of variation?
Continuous Variation and Discontinuous Variation.
A function that is discontinous everywhere?
An example of a function discontinuous everywhere fa(x) = 1 , if x belongs to set a fa(x) = 0 if x does not belong to set a The a is a subscript here. This function is called the 'Indicator function' and everywhere discontinuous.
Is a scar a discontinuous variation?
It is a continuous variation which is not by birth. It is an injury which will slowly change so a scar is a continuous variation.
A variable that changes as a result of the other variable?
The dependent variable.
Variable is the value whose value depends upon the value of the independent variable?
The dependent variable is the variable that depends on the independent variable.
What is the difference between continuous and discontinuous and discrete variables?
A continuous variable is a variable for which all possible representations are valid. A discrete variable is a variable for which only some representations are valid. Discontinuous variables apply to data sets where values recorded during particular periods are missing from the set.
