Frequency Distribution Table

This document provides information on constructing frequency distribution tables. It explains that a frequency distribution table organizes data by sorting observations into classes and showing the frequency of observations in each class. There are three types: ungrouped, grouped, and categorical. An ungrouped table lists each observation while a grouped table places observations into user-defined ranges or classes. The document also includes sample problems and questions to guide the construction of frequency distribution tables from raw data.

The frequency distribution table is under descriptive statistics
Frequency distributions the most convenient way of organizing data is by
constructing a frequency distribution. A frequency distribution is a collection of
observations produced by sorting them into classes and showing their frequency (or
numbers) of occurrences in each class. There are three basic types of frequency
distribution: categorical/ungrouped, and grouped
Below are examples of each:
