Frequently we want to represent two variables in a single table. Such
tables are called two way tables. If both the variables are quantitative
variables they are also called as correlation table. Example is
weight (kgs)
Height(cms) 50 - 55 55 - 60 60 - 65 65 - 70
160 - 165 5 12 15 10
165 - 170 10 15 11 6

If there are two variables out of which one is qualitative and the other
is quantitative then it is just called two way table and not correlation
table or contingency table. Example
Income(in thousands)
Gender 20 - 25 25 - 30 30 - 35
Male 8 20 25
Female 9 18 22
