IMPORTANT POINTS

The word statistics is used for two different meanings.
In the singular sense, it is used as a science or a subject which deals with the collection, classification, tabulation, representation and interpretation of the data.
In the plural sense, it is sometimes used for the numerical facts collected in the form of numbers.
If we have collected information about the heights of class 6 children from ten different schools of Delhi, then this information in the form of numbers is called statistics.
1. Data : Each number, collected for giving a required information, is called the data.

2. Bar Graph (Column Graph) : Bar graph is the simplest form of presenting a data. It consists of bars (usually vertical), all of same widths. The heights of these bars are drawn according to the number they represent.

3. Pie Graph : When the given data is represented by the sectors of a circle, the resulting diagram (graph) obtained is called a pie-graph or a pie-chart.
