BOT 202 - Lecture 5 - Coding of Data
• YC = [ Y – 3.3] x 10
• From each variate (Y) remove 3.3 (to remove the decimal place) and you multiply
the result 10.
• Note: Subtraction and Addition are Additive and when you multiply the variate (Y)
is Multiplicative Coding.
BOT 202: BIOMETRY
• DATA WITH CODING: Mean,Variance & Std Dev
• MEAN
• Coded Mean= ∑fYC = 175 = 7
∑f 25
• When the Mean is being decoded, both the
Additive and the Multiplicative code will be
considered because both of them affect Mean.
• Decoding:
• Original Mean (Y) = 7÷ 10 ; + 3.3 = 4.0
BOT 202: BIOMETRY
• Coded Variance:
Coded Variance = (S2C) = ∑fY2C – (∑fYC)2
∑f______
∑f-1
