Question #3
Read the following statements about frequency distribution: 1. Exclusive class intervals ensure continuity. 2. Inclusive class intervals leave no gaps. 3. Sturges' rule helps determine the number of classes. Which statement(s) is/are correct?
A. 1 and 2 only
B. 1, 2 and 3
C. 2 and 3 only
D. 1 and 3 only
