Purpose
The purpose of the assignment is to present
nominal data using a column graph and a pie
chart.
The data is nominal due to how the answers
are categorized. The answers to the question
are Yes, No, or Unsure.
The answers can be tallied and plotted to
reflect comparisons between the quantities of
each answer (percentages), but calculations
cannot be made with this information
(Nieswiadomy, 2012).
