The absolute frequency of the attrbutea, =,,..., k s defned as follows: F( a ): = Number of cases n whch a occurs, =,,..., k. The relatve frequency of the attrbutea, =,,..., k, s defned as: R... f ( a): = F( a), =,,..., k. n n : number of observatons. F( a ) n, =,,..., k f ( a ), =,,..., k k F( a) = n, = k f ( a) =. = Ex...

(Absolute and Relatve Frequency Dstrbutons) The sequence F( a ), F( a ),..., F( a k) s defned as the absolute frequency dstrbuton. The sequence f n ( a ), f ( a ),..., f ( a k) s defned as the relatve frequency dstrbuton. R... (Graphcal Representaton of Frequences) We dstngush. bar charts A bar chart depcts the frequences by a seres of bars.. polygons A frequency polygon s a lne graph of a frequency dstrbuton. 3. frequency curves A frequency curve s a smoothed frequency polygon. 4. hstograms A hstogram s a bar graph of a frequency dstrbuton 5. pe charts (crcle dagrams) A pe chart s a pe-shaped fgure n whch peces of the pe represent the frequences.

In terms of skewness, a frequency curve can be. negatvely skewed: nonsymmetrcal wth the «tal» to the left.. postvely skewed: nonsymmetrcal wth the «tal» to the rght. 3. symmetrcal. 4

5 In terms of kurtoss, a frequency curve can be. platykurtc: flat wth the observatons dstrbuted relatvely evenly.. leptokurtc: peaked wth the observatons concentrated wthn a narrow range of values. 3. mesokurtc: nether flat nor peaked, n terms of the dstrbuton of observed values. D.. 3. (Cumulatve Absolute and Relatve Frequences) The cumulatve absolute frequency of the attrbutea, =,,..., k, s defned as: F( a ) + F( a ) F( a ) = F( a ), =,,..., k. = The cumulatve relatve frequency of the attrbutea, =,,..., k, s defned as: f ( a ) + f ( a ) f ( a ) = f ( a ), =,,..., k = Ex...

(Emprcal Dstrbuton Functon) The emprcal dstrbuton functon s defned as follows: for x a F( x): = f ( a ) for a < x a = for x> a + R.. 5.

The process of dvdng the data nto dfferent groups (vz. classes) whch are homogeneous wthn but heterogeneous between themselves s called a classfcaton. D.. 5. (Absolute and Relatve Class Frequences) Let the data be dvded nto the classesc, =,,..., p. The absolute frequency of the class C s defned as follows: F := Number of observatons nc, =,,..., p The relatve frequency of the class C s defned as follows: 8
