Sturge’s rule is used to find out directly

Number of classes in a continuous distribution
Size of class limits
Direction of the classification
None of the above

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.
