In this section, we delve into fundamental concepts of statistics, particularly focusing on the classification of data into ungrouped and grouped formats. The transition from analyzing ungrouped data to grouped data is significant as it allows for a more efficient summarization and analysis of larger datasets. We will further explore the measures of central tendency—mean, median, and mode—and how they apply to both ungrouped and grouped datasets. The concept of cumulative frequency is introduced, alongside its utility in creating cumulative frequency distributions and curves known as ogives. Understanding these elements is essential as they provide foundational tools for statistical analysis in various applications.
