Significance of Tabulation:
• Simplifies complex data
• Unnecessary details and repetition of data avoided in
tabulation
• Facilitates comparison
• Gives identity to data
• Reveals pattern with in the figures which cannot be
seen in the narrative form.
Classification of Tabular Presentation of Data
- Quantitative Classification: in this analysis, the data is classified and
distributed on the basis of features that are quantitative in nature. The
features can be calculated by estimating the quantitative value in simpler
terms.
- Qualitative Classification: As the data is classified and distributed
according to traits such as physical status, national, social status, etc., it is
called qualitative classification.
- Temporal Classification: In this type of classification, time becomes the
categorizing and distribution of variables of data. By the time, it could mean
years, months, days, hours, etc.
- Spatial Classification: In this type of classification, the data is categorised
and distributed on the basis of location; the location or place could be
country, state, district, block, village/town, etc.
Frequency Distribution Table
- In research papers, the type of tabulation commonly used is known as
a frequency distribution table
- A frequency distribution table is the tabular arrangement of data by
classes together with the corresponding class frequencies.
- The main purpose of frequency distribution table is it summarizes data
by organizing it into different categories or intervals and displaying the
number of occurrences (frequency) for each category. It is particularly
useful for categorical and discrete numerical data.
Significance of Graphical:
• They are attractive
• They give a bird’s eye-view of data
• They can be easily understood
• They facilitate comparison of various characteristics
• Theorems and results of statistics can be visualized
using graphs
Types of Graphs
- Line graphs – A line graph also known as a line plot or a line chart is a
graph that uses lines to connect individual data points. A line graph displays
quantitative values over a specified time interval.
