This document discusses the different types of data: quantitative and qualitative. Quantitative data can be further divided into discrete and continuous data. Discrete data deals with whole numbers that can be counted, like the number of cars or students. Continuous data involves decimal points, like temperatures. Qualitative data describes characteristics and measures things like hair color, gender, or place of birth through observations rather than numerical values.
