Chapter 2 - Numeric attributes. In this chapter, we discuss basic statistical methods for exploratory data analysis of numeric attributes. We look at measures of central tendency or location, measures of dispersion, and measures of linear dependence or association between attributes. We emphasize the connection between the probabilistic and the geometric and algebraic views of the data matrix.
