I. Graphical Data Analysis
- Categorical Variables:
1. Bar Graph: (Visually describes the distribution)
- On the horizontal axis we list each of the possible outcomes that the categorical variable takes on
- On the vertical axis we label the count (frequency) or percent (relative frequency) of cases which fall in each category.
- A bar is constructed over each outcome whose height is equal to the frequency or percentage of outcomes that fall in that category.
