Unit focus

  • Data is useful when it answers a clear question. Categorical data is sorted into named groups such as favourite fruit or transport type.
  • Use this routine: Ask question → Collect data → Sort categories → Table → Answer.
  • Watch for unclear question: Use a question everyone can answer the same way.
