In this assignment you are asked:
to obtain basic descriptive statistics and plots histograms
barplots andor boxplots, as appropriate for four variables,
described below.
to obtain a boxplot for 'feelnerv' by 'hometown'.

make no sense for a nominal variable.
The syntax that produced your results must be handed in You
do not have to and should not, hand in your output. The

variable. Your description should include the numeric value

a given variable. You should report everything for a specific
variable at once, one variable at a time, in the order: age,
hometown, mixedsex, and feelnerv.
As appropriate, you can and should use more than one statistic
to describe central tendency and dispersion. You can describe
the shape of the distributions verbally. points
to explain the advantages and disadvantages of the measures
of central tendency and of dispersion used. You only need to
explain each measure once, however many times you have
used it points
to explain the meaning of one singlevariable boxplot you have
requested, and the meaning of the twovariable boxplot.
points
to explain, for a standardized variable, what is
meant by scores of and points
