All right, we're looking at a situation where we're given a bunch of data values for the number of customers waiting for a table at 6 o 'clock on a bunch of saturdays.
00:13
So this 6 p .m.
00:15
Time for 40 consecutive saturdays at some restaurant.
00:29
And these times, which, you know, we can, excuse me, the number of customers, we can list as, you know, 10, 11, 5, 9, 13, 8, 7, and on and on.
00:46
These, i mean, go on for a total of 40.
00:48
But the question is, is this data discrete or continuous? and understanding the difference in those two is really, really important.
01:06
Continuous data is numbers that we could tell by looking at difference in time.
01:14
So when we're thinking about like a graph or something like that, we'd be saying, you know, points where you could find the values in between them.
01:25
So it would look, you know, something like this, where everything would be connected.
01:31
And it means that even in between these given values, the continuous data means that this whole section in between is something that's measurable.
01:47
Discrete data is different.
01:50
Discrete data, we have these points, but the information in between them, isn't something that you can count...
