3. Frequency Distribution A frequency distribution is the organization of raw data in table form, using classes and frequencies. Each raw data value is placed into a quantitative or qualitative category called a class. The frequency of a class then is the number of data values contained in a specific class.

4. Categorical Frequency Distributions The categorical frequency distribution is used for data that can be placed in specific categories (nominal and ordinal)

7. Grouped frequency Distributions When the range of the data is large, the data must be grouped into classes that are more than one unit in width, in what is called a grouped frequency distribution. Class limits – upper class limit, lower class limit Class width – range Class boundaries are used to separate the classes so that there are no gaps in the frequency distribution

8. About classes….. 1.There should be between 5 and 20 classes 2.It is preferable, but not necessary that the class width be an odd number. This ensures that the midpoint of each class (the class midpoint) has the same place value as the data 3.The classes must be mutually exclusive 4.The classes must be continuous 5.The classes must be exhaustive 6.The classes must be equal in width

13. Ungrouped Frequency Distribution Used when the range of the data values is relatively small. Uses single data values for each class: The data shown represents the number of miles per gallon that 30 selected SUVs obtained in city driving 121712141618 161812161715 16121516 1214151215 191316181614

15. Cumulative Frequency A cumulative frequency distribution is a distribution that shows the number of data values less than or equal to a specific value (usually an upper boundary)
