Question
Histogram can only be formed with the continuous classification of data.
Options
True
False
Solution
This statement is true.
Explanation:
Yes, a Histogram can only be formed with the continuous classification of data. The frequency distribution of a continuous series is graphically presented in the form of a Histogram. If the given data is not continuous, then it is to be converted into an exclusive series before presenting the data in the form of a Histogram. Histograms can never be prepared for discrete series.
