Count Variables

Count variables are types of data that represent the number of times an event or characteristic occurs within a certain context. For example, the number of emails received in a day or the number of cars passing a street each hour. These variables are quantitative and discrete, meaning they only take non-negative whole numbers and can be counted exactly. Count variables help analyze frequency and patterns in data, providing insights into how often specific events happen, which can inform decisions in areas like business, research, and everyday life.
