Define the following

1. Raw Data

- Raw data are also known as the tables of data. It refers to data that is
already collected directly from a primary source and has not been processed in any
way. As it is not being processed yet, it can also be called as original data or primary
data. Each row of the data includes an observation while column serves as a
variable that describes some property of each observation. It needs some processes
for it to be considered as information.

2. Range

- The difference between the lowest and the highest values, it can be
determine through subtracting the sample maximum and minimum. The range is
more complex in descriptive statistics. Range is the size of the smallest interval
encompass all the data and provides an indication of statistical dispersion.

3. Frequency Distribution

- it is either graphical or tabular representation that illustrates the number of

observation withing a given interval. This is often used in statistical context.
Particularly, it is used for normal distributions that elucidates observations of
probabilities divided among standard deviations. In this distribution, class intervals
represent as range of values. In fact, there are different kinds of frequency
distribution namely ungrouped frequency distribution,grouped frequency distribution,
cumulative frequency distribution, and relative frequency distribution.

4. Class Limits

- it is considered as the smallest and largest observations in each class. It is

divided into two parts such as the lower class limits, is the smallest data value that
can go into the class. The upper class limit, the largest data value than can go into
the class. Hence, class limits corresponds to a class interval wherein the minimum
and maximum value of class interval are defined.

5. Class Boundaries

- It is defined as the individual values chosen to separate classes. It is the

actual class limit of class interval or they are the halfway points that separate the
classes. It is attained by averaging the upper limit of the previous data and the lower
limit of the next class. Thus, class boundaries are the end points of an open interval.
6. Intervals

- is a range of values for a statistic. It represents an uncertainty that exists in

the data because we work with samples that are obtained from a larger population or
process.

7. Frequency

- refers to a measure of how often or frequent something happened. The

frequency of any distribution will let us know the repeated number of times a specific
observation. In general, it means the number of times a certain event has taken
place. It can simply be defined as the count of certain event which has occurred.

8. Percentage

- It simply means as per hundred which is known for its symbol “%.” It is a
relative value indicating hundredth parts of any quantity. It is somehow another way
to represent a proportion. Hence, it is a number of ratio expressed as a faction of
100. It is a dimensionless number, it has no unit of measurements.

9. Cumulative Frequency

- is one of the variants of frequency distribution, that instead of reporting how

many data values fall in some class, they report how many data values are
contained in either that class or any class to its left. It is when you add or subtract the
frequencies of all the previous class intervals to determine the frequency of a
particular class intervals. This frequency calculates frequencies for every category.

10. Midpoint

- is a specific point that is in the middle of the line joining two points. The two
reference points are the endpoints of a line, and the midpoint is lying between the
two points. It divides the line joining these two points into two equal halves.
