Chapter 3 Graphical and Numerical Summaries of Qualitative Data UNIT OBJECTIVES At the conclusion of this unit you should be able to: n 1)Construct graphs that appropriately describe data n 2)Calculate and interpret numerical summaries of a data set. n 3)Combine numerical methods with graphical methods to analyze a data set.

Displaying Qualitative Data Sometimes you can see a lot just by looking. Yogi Berra Hall of Fame Catcher, NY Yankees

Slide 4

The three rules of data analysis wont be difficult to remember n 1.Make a picture reveals aspects not obvious in the raw data; enables you to think clearly about the patterns and relationships that may be hiding in your data. n 2.Make a picture to show important features of and patterns in the data. You may also see things that you did not expect: the extraordinary (possibly wrong) data values or unexpected patterns n 3.Make a picture the best way to tell others about your data is with a well-chosen picture.

Bar Charts: show counts or relative frequency for each category n Example: Titanic passenger/crew distribution

Slide 6

Pie Charts: shows proportions of the whole in each category n Example: Titanic passenger/crew distribution

The table above is a summary of that information.

Slide 9

Top 10 causes of deaths in the United States Top 10 causes of death: bar graph Each category is represented by one bar. The bars height shows the count (or sometimes the percentage) for that particular category. The number of individuals who died of an accident in is approximately 100,000.

Slide 10

Bar graph sorted by rank Easy to analyze Top 10 causes of deaths in the United States Sorted alphabetically Much less useful

Slide 11

Percent of people dying from top 10 causes of death in the United States Top 10 causes of death: pie chart Each slice represents a piece of one whole. The size of a slice depends on what percent of the whole this category represents.

Slide 12

Percent of deaths from top 10 causes Percent of deaths from all causes Make sure your labels match the data. Make sure all percents add up to 100.
