Principles of Data Science
Nominal data refers to a type of categorical data that represents distinct categories or groups without any inherent order or ranking among them. This type of data is often used to label variables that cannot be quantified but can be categorized based on qualitative attributes. Examples include gender, race, or color, where each category is merely a name or label, and there’s no meaningful way to compare them in terms of greater or lesser values.
