Summary 1.3 MMC Important stuff (except chapter 2)


Chapter 1 – Looking at data: distributions

Categorical or quantitative variable
 Categorical variable places a case into one of serveral groups of categories.
 Quantitative variable takes numerical values for which arithmetic operations such as
adding and averaging make sense.

Cases, labels and variables
Cases = the objects described by a set of data.
Label = a special variable used in some data sets to distinguish the different cases.
Variable = characteristic of a case.

Displaying distributions with graphs
 Categorical variables
 Bar graph
 Pie chart
 Quantitative variables
 Stemplot
 Back-to-back stemplot
 Histogram

Examining distributions
(1) Overall pattern + deviations.
(2) Shape, center + spread.
(3) Outliers.

Describing distributions with numbers
 The mean (average value).
 The median (middle value – midpoint of a distribution).
 The quartiles (Q1 = median of the observations left from median & Q3 = the median
of the observations right from the median).
 The five-number summary (Minimum – Q1 – Median – Q3 – Maximum).
 IQR (interquartile range = Q3 – Q1).

When is something an outlier?
IQR x 1.5 above the third quartile & IQR x 1.5 below the first quartile.
Everything outside these values = outlier.
