Can the median be used to describe both categorical data and numerical data?
Can the median and mode be used to describe both categorical data and numerical data
Can the mode be used to describe both categorical and numerical data?
Yes. here is an example: The mode is the most frequent subject that appears in a set of data. So if the data was 2, 5, 5, 7, 10, 10, 10, 10, 11, 12, 13, 13. The mode would be 10 because it appears the most. The mode can be categorical and numerical. I have already proven that the mode can be numerical in the sentences above. For an example of categorical data, say I surveyed some people about what their favorite food was and this was the data: Pizza, pizza, pizza, ice cream, ice cream, strawberries, strawberries, oranges, spaghetti. The mode would have been pizza.
Find the mode of this set of data?
It has no mode.

Can the median be used to descibe both numerical data and categorical data?
It can be used to describe continuous or discreet data but not categorical or ordered data, unless that data is also numercal which is very unlikely
