Example of nominal variable and real variable?
A nominal variable is one where observations are classified to categories eg small, medium and large for t-shirts. A real variable is one that takes numerical values, such as shirt size 12, 14, 16 etc. A real value may be a continuous (as opposed to discrete) variable but the very act of recording the observation usually results in the continuous variable being replaced by a discrete one.
Is the gender of college students a discrete random variable a continuous random variable or not a random variable?
It is a discrete random variable.
Is occupation discrete or continuous?
is occupation decrte or coninus
Is date a discrete or continuous variable?
Date is a discrete variable whereas date/time would be continuous.
What is the definititon of a discrete random variable?
The discrete random variable almost always arises in connection with counting.

Yes, is a discrete variable.
What is a discrete variable?
A discrete variable is one that cannot take on all values within the limits of the variable.

Is a nominal variable a discrete variable?
No. A discrete variable is one that takes discrete numerical values. But a discrete variable can be ordered while a nominal one cannot. Age, in years, is a discrete variable, and you can say that a 10-year old is younger than a 20-year old who is younger than a 40-year old. Favourite fruit would generate a nominal variable but you cannot say that a banana is more than an apple which, in turn, is more than an orange, etc. (Remember, you are talking only of the nominal values of the fruit - not their price or size or nutritional value or any such characteristic.)
Is heart rate a discrete or continuous variable?

Is forearm length a discrete variable?
