Descriptive Statistics is used to denote any of the many techniques used to summarize a set of data. In a sense, we are using the data on members of a set to describe the set. The techniques are commonly classified as:

  • Graphical Description in which we use graphs to summarize data.
  • Tabular Description in which we use tables to summarize data.
