Start here with your data


Univariate statistics

Does you data contain at least one categorical variable?
Yes, I have at least one categorical variable! (?)
No, I have only continuous variables! (?)


Multivariate statistics

Do you have several continuous variables without clear dependencies?


Categorical and continuous data

Does your data consist of categorical and continuous data? Does your data consist only of categorical data?
