Do you need Statistics or Data Sets?
What's the difference?
A
data set
is a collection of
raw
data, meaning that it has been gathered, but not
analyzed.
Think of a spreadsheet, with columns listing variables and each row is a person's response.
Statistics
,
on the other hand, consist of the
findings
that result from the
analysis
of data.
