So today, we need to understand the difference between a qualitative variable and a quantitative variable.
00:09
So let's start with the qualitative variable.
00:14
A qualitative variable is given by a word.
00:19
It's about the category that an item belongs to.
00:25
So in this case, with the flowers below, we could say that the qualitative variable is what color is each flower? right? so this one's red.
00:44
This is red.
00:47
This is blue, red, red, blue, blue, and blue.
00:58
So this is a qualitative aspect because there are no numbers involved.
01:02
There's no order.
01:03
It doesn't matter if you say red and then blue or blue and then red.
01:08
The important thing is that each flower falls into a category.
01:15
So that's qualitative variables.
01:18
Now, when we need to know, what a quantitative variable is, that's a little bit different.
01:25
Right? so let's get rid of all this qualitative stuff here...
