Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Categorical data: a type of data that can be stored into categories with the help of names /labels.

This grouping is usually made according to the characteristics of the data and similarities of these characteristics through a method known as matching.

Categorical data also places an individual into one of several groups or categories. Examples: eye color, race, gender. May have numerical values assigned: 1=White, 2=Hispanic, 3=Asian, etc. Other numeric categorical variables include baseball jersey number or zip code.
