Summarizing data with Frequency Tables & Histograms

There are two ways to describe a data set (sample from a population) - Pictorial Graphs or Tables of Numbers. Both are important for analyzing data.

Definitions

  • A frequency distribution is a display of the number (frequency) of occurrences of each value in a data set.
  • A relative frequency distribution is a display of the percent (ratio or frequency to sample-size) of occurrences of each value in a data set.

Example

Stage of disease at diagnosis of breast cancer in a random sample of US women.

Stage Frequency Relative Frequency
0 197 0.09
I 691 0.33
II 703 0.34
III 314 0.15
IV 187 0.09
Total 2092 1.00
