2 The Types of Variables

Name: 2 The Types of Variables
Description: The tutor explores variable types in datasets: ordinal (rankable but no units, like Likert scale responses), interval (equal spacing with units, e.g., years of education), and categorical (no intrinsic ordering, e.g., ethnicity). Avoids misinterpreting arbitrary numeric codes for these variables. Subscribe to @AxiomTutoring.
