    Data

    Data is a collection of information obtained through measurements, study, observations or analysis.

    Sources Of Data

    Primary Data

    • Data originally collected by conducting an enquiry is called primary data as it considered as first hand information.

    Secondary Data

    • Data already in existence or collected and processed by some other agency is called as secondary data.

    Modes Of Collecting Primary Data

    Personal Interviews

    • Direct Personal Investigation
    • Information
    • Indirect Personal Investigation

    Information through Questionnaires And Schedules

    • Enumerators
    • Mailing (Questionnaire’s) Surveys

    Telephonic Interviews

    Modes Of Collecting Secondary Data

    Published Sources

    • Government or Semi-government Publications
    • Reports of Committees and Comissions
    • Publications of Trade associations or Research Scholars/institutions
    • Journals and Papers

    Unpublished Sources

    • These data are not published and are collected by the government organisations and others, generally for their self use or for office record.

    Methods of Statistical Enquiry

    Census Method

    • It is a term used to describe a methodical approach to gather and record information about every element of the population.

    Sample Method

    • This approach is the one in which only a small number of the population’s representative objects are chosen, and data are gathered from them.

    Methods of Sampling

    Random Sampling
    Non-random Sampling

    Organisation Of Data

    • Organisation of data refers to the arrangement of figures in such a way that comparison of a large amount of similar data can be facilitated and further analysis may be performed.

    Classification Of Data

    • It is a process of arranging things in groups or classes on the basis of their similarities.

    Basis of Classification of Data

    • Geographical
    • Chronological
    • Qualitative
      • Simple
      • Manifold
    • Quantitative or Numerical

    Variable

    A characteristic whose value can be measured and can be changed overtime.

    • Discrete Variable
    • Continous Variable

    Raw Data

    • Raw Data is an unorganised data of the various items which cannot be used in its given way.

    Statistical Series

    • It refers to the arrangement of classified data in a logical sequence, such as in accordance with the frequency , size, or other measurable or immeasurable characteristics.

    Types of Statistical Series

    Individual Series

    Frequency Series

    • Discrete Series/Frequency Array
    • Frequency Distribution
        • Exclusive Series
        • Inclusive Series
        • Open-end Series
        • Cumulative Frequency Series
        • Mid-value Frequency Series

    Presentation Of Data

    • The presentation of data means the display of data in such a manner that these can be easily understood and analysed.

    Presentation of Data

    • Textual Presentation of Data
    • Tabular Presentation of Data
    • Diagrammatic Presentation of Data
      • Geometric Form
        • Bar Diagrams
        • Pie Diagrams
      • Frequency Diagrams
        • Histogram
        • Frequency Polygon
        • Ogive
      • Arithmetic Line Graphs or Time Series Graphs
        • One Variable Graph
        • Two or more than two variable graph

    Kinds of Tables

    • According to Purpose
      • General Purpose Table
      • Special Purpose Table
    • According to Originality
      • Original Table
      • Derived Table
    • According to Construction
      • Simple or one way Table
      • Complex Table
        • Double/Two way table
        • Treble table
        • Manifold table
