    Descriptive and Inferential.

    Explanation:

    The statistical method is divided into two methods. both methods give different insights for statistical data. both methods are equally important.

    Descriptive methods:

    This method is used with a description of the data sample.

    For example, if you have banana's, apple, mango's, oranges. you have 100 fruits and out of hundred 40 apples sold out then 40% of apple sold out and rest of in basket are total fruits.

    Inferential methods:

    This method is used on a large population.

    Suppose you want to measure the height of men. It is not possible to measure all men's height but out of large population we can take a sample and measure the height and it can be can generalized.
