Quantitative variables represent amounts that can be measured numerically, divided into discrete variables with distinct values like number of children and continuous variables with any real number value like height. Examples include age, days, weeks, years, kg. Qualitative variables categorize items by names or groups instead of numbers, such as movie names, eye colors, provinces, dog breeds, and US states.
