Series1

I used the program to randomly select 90 numbers and then put them in to integers using a formula on excel. An excel program then made the data into a table and then into a histogram. The program put the integers into bins and sorted them out into frequencies to make the histogram. The bins are the classes of the data and the frequencies are how many times the data occurs. As you can see in the histogram, the data is very normal. Its shape resembles a bell which means the data has normal distribution.

Grades

I took the data from the Part 1 A and sorted them into specific bins and gave each bin range meaning. The bin ranges represented a grade. We took quantitative data and gave it meaning and turned it into qualitative data. Part 1 A was put into a histogram with just the random numbers where the data from Part 1 B was taken and labeled it relating to specific grades ranges.

Frequency

Using the data taken above, excel was able to make a bar graph. The data is qualitative now. Bar graphs have spaces so the data doesnt touch.

Like above we took the frequency table from part II above and calculated the relative frequencies and then made a bar graph.

Part III In part one, we selected 90 random numbers and put them into integers to create a histogram. Histograms show quantitative data where the bar graphs show qualitative. Histograms have a specific order where bar graphs have no specific order. Using histograms is an easier way to get the data you need because excel will automatically generate the numbers in the categories you need them to be in. Excel makes the whole process of generating and gathering this data much easier to the users. Bar graphs represent categorical data. Histograms are used to present continuous data, which is data that represents measured quantity where the numbers can be any value in a certain range. Bar graphs are usually separated where histograms the bars are touching each other. Bar graphs are good because they give more specific data. Histograms are good when you want more of an overall view of your data.
