Question
identifying variables
identify the type of variable below
your pets names
categorical
discrete numerical
continuous numerical
Categorical variables represent types or groups. Pets' names are labels that categorize each pet, not numerical values (either discrete or continuous). Discrete numerical variables have distinct, countable values (e.g., number of pets), and continuous numerical variables can take any value within a range (e.g., weight of a pet). Since "pets' names" are non - numerical labels for different pets, they fit the categorical variable definition.
