Abstract: Abstract Statistics deals with data. The basics of collection, summarization, presentation, description, and analysis of data are explained. Knowledge of the rules and the levels of measurement are important because each statistical technique is appropriate for data measured only at certain levels. So levels of measurement are introduced. Analysis of data that may vary will depend on the variables. So types of variables according to suitability are introduced.
