What to Focus On

  • Statistics originally meant information about the political state.
  • In olden days, statistics was used for tax collection and state administration.
  • Statistics became an independent science over time.

  • In plural sense, statistics means data.

  • Secrist gave the most comprehensive definition.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Statistics means only numerical data, so the subject is just about collecting numbers.

All facts are statistics, even if they are not numerical.
