## A step-by-step guide toorganizing data

Data organization is the process of organizing raw data, by classifying them into different categories. This raw data includes observations of variables. For example, the order of marks obtained by students in different subjects is the organization of data. Data organization includes classification, frequency distribution table, image display, graphic display, etc.

Data organization helps us organize data so that we can easily read and work with it. It is difficult to work or perform any analysis on raw data. Hence, we need to organize the data to display it appropriately. When data is properly organized as needed, it can help us gather the information we need in a quick time frame in the future.

### Classification of data

Data classification gives the order to raw data. We can classify the bulk of data based on their need or purpose. The different types of data, based on which they are organized are given below:

Chronological data:

Chronological data are grouped or classified by time, such as days, weeks, months, and years. For example, population growth over time per year.

Spatial data:

Spatial data are classified based on geographical locations or regions such as cities, states, countries, etc.

Qualitative data:

Qualitative data are categorized based on various characteristics such as nationality, gender, religion, marital status, etc. Such data cannot be measured but can be classified based on their presence and absence of qualitative characteristics. For example, the classification of the male and female populations in a city.

Quantitative data:

Quantitative data is a type of data where the above characteristics (in the case of qualitative classification) are further categorized into number-based data such as height, age, student grades, salary, etc.
