A data point is a discrete unit of information that can be used to draw conclusions about a population.
In statistics, data points are used to calculate descriptive statistics and inferential statistics.
Descriptive statistics provide information about the characteristics of a population, such as the number of data points in a sample.
Inferential statistics help us make decisions about relationships between variables in a population.
