Discrete vs. Continuous Data

Discrete Data

Discrete data can only take specific, distinct values (often integers). It's typically counted. There are no intermediate values possible between two consecutive discrete values.

  • Examples: Number of students in a class, number of cars in a parking lot, shoe sizes (e.g., 7, 7.5, 8, but not 7.23), results of a dice roll.

Continuous Data

Continuous data can take any value within a given range. It's typically measured. Infinitely many values are possible between any two continuous values.

  • Examples: Height of a person, temperature, time taken to complete a task, weight of an object.

Understanding the type of data is crucial as it often dictates the appropriate methods for analysis and presentation.
