Selected Answer: A
Descriptive statistics is a branch of statistics that uses summary statistics, such as mean, median, mode, standard deviation, range, frequency, or correlation, to quantitatively describe and summarize data. Descriptive statistics can help data analysts understand the main features of a data set, such as its central tendency, variability, or distribution. Descriptive statistics can also help data analysts visualize data using charts, graphs, or tables. Descriptive statistics do not make any inferences or predictions about the data, unlike inferential statistics, which use data analysis techniques to infer properties of an underlying population or probability distribution from a sample of data.Reference:Databricks - Descriptive Statistics,Databricks - Data Analysis with Databricks SQL
