Gyounghun Lee

INDRODUCTION
The survey about inhabitant is regarded importantly when companies or state government start a service for residents. It makes more easily when companies or state government make strategy such as, who are they, and what do they need. Therefore, the aim of this study is to know about resident through several investigated simple data.

METHODS
First, I want to mention that this data may get a bias and chance error, because I extracted just 10 samples from the data which is too small to represent the data. Also, people who participate the object may answered a wrong or distortion. This is an observational and retrospective study. I am just going to use to identify the scale, graphical display, the five number summary, and standard deviation. There are 23 lists in the data, but I am going to use only 15 which are gender, height, weight, education level, annual gross income, political party, death penalty, health care bill, Number of ounces of water, handedness, change in party, Obama reelection, ethnicity, ring size, and shoe size.
