Qualitative data is the data that is not represented by numbers, for example, favorite food or country.
On the other hand, the quantitative data is represented by numbers and it is classified as discrete and continuous. The discrete data is the data that only can take specific values, for example, the number of people is always a whole number, there can't be 5.5 people. The continuous data is the data that can take decimal values, for example, the mass of an object can be 4.06 kg.
