Objectives of the Lecture
At the end of the lecture student will be able to:
Classify the data according to sample size.
Identify the measures of central tendency for
raw data and its properties.
Identify the measures of variation for raw data
and its properties.

Descriptive Statistics :
Is divided in to
2
kinds of measurements:
1* Measures of Central Tendency:
Or- Measures of Location
Or- Measures of Averages
Or- Measures of Positions
Or- Measures of Magnitude
&
2* Measures of Variation
:
Or- Measures of Dispersion
Or- Measures of Scatter
Or- Measures of Variability

Data :
Where divided according to the size of sample
(n) into two kinds:
{{ Where:
n = sample size
or
no.of readings
or
no. of observations)
}}.
• Ungrouped Data
: when (
n < 30
)
Small Sample
or
Raw Data.
• Grouped Data
: when (
n
≥≥≥≥
30
)
large Sample
or
Frequency Distribution.

Mode
:
It’s symbol is

frequent value or measurement
or
the value
which appear more frequent than the other.
we have 4 conditions
a)
No-Mode
:When we don’t have
any
frequent
in the values.
b)
Uni-Mode
: When we have
1
value frequent
more than the other.
c)
Bi-Mode
: When we have
2
values frequent
more than the other.
d)
Multi-Mode
: When we have
3 or more
values
frequent more than the other.

Variance
: It’s symbol is S

is a measure
of variability which take into account the
difference

each
observation
& it’s sample mean where

The assist way a round this difficulty is to
use the square root of variance as a
measure
of
variability.
