Distinguish between discrete data and continuous data

Sagot :

Discrete data is data that can be usual measured as a whole integer, continuous data doesn't usually include or round up to whole integers. That's how I distinguish between the two.

E.g. discrete data maybe number of students in a room, which maybe 20, but it is not possible to have 20.5 students, right?

Continuous data maybe temperature, 12.3*C where the temperature doesn't follow a set pattern, going up or down at anytime, during the day.

Definition I found online:

Discrete data is the type of data that has clear spaces between values. Continuous data is data that falls in a constant sequence.

Hope this helps!

Discrete data is countable while continuous measurable.
