Data values that are categorical and not...

题目

Data values that are categorical and not amenable to being organized in a logical order are most likely to be characterized as:

选项

A.ordinal data.

B.discrete data.

C.nominal data.

答案

C

解析

C is correct. Nominal data are categorical values that are not amenable to being organized in a logical order. A is incorrect because ordinal data are categorical data that can be logically ordered or ranked. B is incorrect because discrete data are numerical values that result from a counting process; thus, they can be ordered in various ways, such as from highest to lowest value. C是正确的。名义数据是分类值，并不表示逻辑或者排列顺序。 A是不正确的，因为排序数据是可以逻辑排序或排序的分类数据。 B是不正确的，因为离散数据是计数过程中产生的数值；因此，它们可以以各种方式排序，例如从最高值到最低值。
