ABSTRACT |
It is necessary to describe a data set after collection of data in elementary statistics course. Two major numerical summary of the data set may be measures of central location and dispersion. There are various unmerical summary methods in presenting how data are dispersed and each method has its own advantages and disadvantages. Quartiles are discussed among several methods to describe dispersion of data set. When data type is discrete, exact quartile values are sometimes ambiguous to find, whereas exact quartile values are obtained for contionuous data. Examples of both data types are given. Programs listed below may be used to provide quartiles in MINITAB and SAS. |
