Number of classes in a continuous distribution
Size of class limits
Direction of the classification
None of the above
Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
Sturge’s rule is used to find the approximate number of classes in a continuous distribution. It states that the number of classes should be equal to $1 + \log_{10}(n)$, where $n$ is the number of observations.
Option A is incorrect because Sturge’s rule is not used to find the number of classes in a discrete distribution.
Option B is incorrect because Sturge’s rule is not used to find the size of class limits.
Option C is incorrect because Sturge’s rule is not used to find the direction of the classification.
Option D is the correct answer because Sturge’s rule is used to find the approximate number of classes in a continuous distribution.
