Introduction to Statistical Data.

The study of data: how to collect, summarize and present it.

How to collect data:

Descriptive (like "high" or "fast") or Numerical (numbers).
Numerical Data can be Discrete or Continuous:

Discrete data is counted,
Continuous data is measured
(within a range)
Survey:
  • Step one: Create the questions
  • Step two: Ask the questions
  • Step three: Tally the results

  • Step four: present the results

How to Show Data

Bar Graphs, the heights of the bars represent the frequency. The data is discrete

Vertical



Pie Charts, the angles formed by each part adds up to 360o





Dot Plots, A graphical display of data using dots.




Line Graphs, a graph that shows information that is connected in some way (such as change over time)





Scatter (x,y) Plots,has points that show the relationship between two sets of data.


Pictographs 



Histograms, it is a vertical bar graph with no gaps between the bars. The area of each bar is proportional to the frequency it represents.




Frequency Distribution, The organization of raw data in table form with classes and frequencies.



Stem and Leaf Plots, a diagram that summarises while maintaining the individual data point. The stem is a column of the unique elements of data after removing the last digit. The final digits (leaves) of each column are then placed in a row next to the appropriate column and sorted in numerical order.



Cumulative Tables and Graphs, a plot of the cumulative frequency against the upper class boundary with the points joined by line segments
