Statistics for Data Science and Business Analysis - Cross Tables and Scatter Plots

The video tutorial explores how to represent relationships between variables using cross tables for categorical data and scatter plots for numerical data. It begins with an introduction to cross tables, also known as contingency tables, using an investment example. The tutorial then explains how to visualize data with side-by-side bar charts. It concludes with a detailed discussion on scatter plots, using SAT scores as an example, highlighting trends, concentrations, and outliers. The video wraps up by introducing the next topic: descriptive statistics.
