• Preparation of Frequency Distribution Table
Meaning-- Discrete Series Problems -- 01

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
• The aim of the chapter is to make students to
present data in textual and Tabular format including
the technique of creating frequency distribution
and working out bi-variate distribution table

LEARNING OUTCOMES
• After the Chapter, The Students Shall be able to
Describe and Understand the Rules & Types of
Classification, Frequency Distribution, Class Interval
& its Types, Basic Principles Tabulation and The
Sorting of Data.

Discrete Series Problems -- 02

Discrete Series Problems
• 1. In a survey of 35 families in a village, the number of
children per family was recorded and the following
data was obtained :
1 0 2 3 4 5 6
7 2 3 4 0 2 5
8 4 5 12 6 3 2

• 2. Count the number of letters in each word of the para
given below (ignoring comma, full-stop, etc.) and
prepare a discrete frequency distribution.
“TODAY, TO A VERY STRIKING DEGREE, OUR CULTURE HAS
BECOME A STATISTICAL CULTURE. EVEN A PERSON WHO
MAY NEVER HAVE HEARD OF AN INDEX NUMBER, IS
ATTACHED IN AN INTIMATE FASHION BY THE GYRATIONS
OF THOSE INDEX NUMBERS WHICH DESCRIBE THE COST
OF LIVING.’’
