Understanding Frequency Tables
A frequency table is a fundamental tool in statistics that organizes raw data into a tabular format, displaying the count of each distinct value or category. It provides a clear picture of the distribution of data, showing how often each category appears in the dataset. For categorical data, like colors or types of objects, frequency tables list each category and the number of times it occurs. The 'Count' column shows the frequency of each category, and the 'Percentage' column expresses this frequency as a proportion of the total dataset, making it easy to compare the prevalence of different categories. Frequency tables are essential for summarizing data, identifying trends, and making informed decisions based on data distribution.
