Categorical Data (Qualitative Data): Categorical Data divides the data into groups. It is
basically of 3 types.
Nominal Data
Ordinal Data
Binary Data
Nominal data: Nominal data is a type of categorical data. Used for labelling variables without
any quantitative value. Nominal data are usually presented by pie chart or a bar graph.
Dataset:
Regions of household
CAR 8
Caraga 8
XII - SOCCSKSARGEN 7
V - Bicol Region 7
Data set:
Other sources of
Income
Enterpreneurial
Activities
Wage/Salaries
Interpretations: From the above pie chart it can be interpreted that the major source of income
for the households is from Wages/Salaries
Ordinal Data: Ordinal data is a type of categorical data which provides a meaningful order to
