The document discusses tabulation of data, including definitions, types, and preparation of tables. It defines tabulation as the systematic presentation of numeric data in rows and columns to facilitate comparison and analysis. The key types of tabulation are simple/one-way, double/two-way, and complex tabulation based on number of characteristics. Preparing tables involves including only essential data, sufficient detail, and citations in text.

3. DEFINATION:-
 Tabulation is a systematic & logical presentation of
numeric data in rows and columns to facilitate
comparison and statistical analysis. It facilitates
comparison by bringing related information close to
each other and helps in further statistical analysis and
interpretation.

4. MEANING OF TABLUTION OF DATA:-
Tabulation is the process of arranging
data into rows and columns. Rows are
horizontal arrangements whereas
columns are vertical arrangements.
Tabulation may be simple, double or
complex. Depending upon the type of
classification.

5. USEFULNESS OF TABLES:-
 The usefulness of table is to present the data in
such a way that they become more meaning full
and can easily understood by a common man.
After editing, which ensures that the information
on the schedule is accurate and categorized in a
suitable form, the data are put together in some
kinds of tables and may also undergo some other
forms of statistical analysis.

6. SIGNIFICANCE OF TABULATION
 It simplifies complex data
 It facilities for comparison
 It gives identity to the data

7. Essential parts of TABLE
A statistical table is divided into several parts, which are explained below
1. Title of the table: A title is a heading at the top of the table
describing it contents. A title usually tells us, what is the nature of the
data, where he data are, what time period do the data cover, how
are the data classified.
2. Caption: The headings for various column and rows are called
columns caption and row caption.
3. Box head: The portion of the table containing Column caption is
called Box head.
4. Stub: The portion of the table containing row caption is called stub.
5. Body of the table: The body of the table contains the statistical data
which have to be presented in different rows and columns.

8. 6. Prefatory notes or head notes: prefatory note appears between
title and body of the table and enclosed in brackets. It is used to
throw some light about the units measurements e.g. in lakhs, in
thousand, in tones etc.
7. Foot note : a foot note an always given at the bottom of the table
but above the source note. A foot note is a statement about
something which is not clear from headings, title stubs and
captions etc. suppose when the profit earned by a company is
shown in a table footnote should define whether it is profit before
tax or profit after tax.
8. Source note : a source note is placed immediately below the
table but after the footnote. It refers to the source from where
information has been taken.

9. Types of TABULATION
The various types of tabulation are as follows:
 Simple Tabulation or One-way Tabulation: when the data are tabulated to one
characteristic, it is said to be simple tabulation or one0way tabulation.
 For Example: Tabulation of data on population of Bidar district classified by one
characteristic like Religious is example of simple tabulation.

Hindu 60
Muslim 20
Christians 15
Sikh 05
Source- Self observation.
Note:- The above table’s information are used based on my own
assumptions.

10.  Double Tabulation or Two-way Tabulation: When the data are tabulated
according to two characteristics at a time, it is said to be two-way tabulation. It is
said to be double tabulation or two way tabulation.
For Example: Tabulation of data on population of Bidar District classified by two
characteristics like Religion and grander is example of double tabulation.

Muslim 12 08 20
Christians 07 08 15

Note:- The above table’s information are used based on my own
assumptions.

11.  Complex Tabulation: When the data re tabulated according to many
characteristics, it is said to be complex tabulation.
For Example: Tabulation of data on population of Bidar District classified by
two characteristics like Religion, gender and Literacy etc. is example of
complex tabulation.

12. Preparation of TABLE
Tables should include only essential data. Each table should be double-
spaced with an explanatory title and sufficient experimental detail in the
accompanying legend so as to be intelligible without reference to the text.
Do not duplicate data by presenting it both in the text and in a table or
figure. All tables must be cited in the text.
