第二章:次数分布

Chapter2: Frequency Distribution

本章指南：分析数据需要做的第一步就是进行描述统计。描述统计是用来整理、概括和简化数据的统计方法。在描述统计中，我们可以运用次数分布来将数据分门别类进行整理。本章我们将学习次数分布表、次数分布图、次数分布的形状并掌握百分位数、百分位等级和插值法。
Guide：The first step in analyzing data is to conduct descriptive statistics. Descriptive statistics is a statistical method used to organize, summarize, and simplify data. In descriptive statistics, we can use frequency distribution to categorize and organize data. In this chapter, we will learn about the frequency distribution table, frequency distribution map, the shape of frequency distribution, and master percentile, percentile rank, and interpolation.
