What are the Sources of Demographic Data?
i. Primary sources of the demographic data are the census, the surveys, the registrations, migration reports, estimates and projections of which the census continues to be the most important single source of basic data for population geographers.
Constructing a frequency Distribution
Following are the steps involved in the construction of frequency distribution
Difference between Diagrams and Graphs
What are the difference between Diagrams and Graphs?
Define Ogive. What are its types? How do we construct all these?
At a time we are interested in knowing how many workers of a factory earn less than Rs. 700 per month or how many workers earn more than Rs. 1,000 per month, percentage of students who have failed etc.
What is frequency curve? How do we draw it?

Define Frequency polygon. How do we draw it?
Frequency polygon is a closed figure got by joining the Middle points of the top of rectangles of histograms.
What is a histogram? How do we draw it?
It consists of a number of rectangles, those are vertically adjacent. Class intervals are taken on X-axis and frequencies on Y-axis. Rectangles are formed of the height proportionate to their frequencies.
Graphic Presentation of Data
A graph refers to the plotting of different valves of the variables on a graph paper which gives the movement or a change in the variable over a period of time.
Diagrammatic Presentation of Data
Although tabulation is very good technique to present the data, but diagrams are an advanced technique to represent data.
