Chapter 6 Frequency and cross tabulation

Nominal data require a different approach. Rather than summary statistics, the relevant information here is the frequency with which each value or category appears in the data. Here we cover how to analyze data for a single nominal variable (e.g. frequency tables and bar charts) and how to evaluate relationships between nominal variables (cross-tabulation).

Note that you will need the film data (biopics.xls) to replicate the examples in this chapter.
