Q

!Mosaic plot?

A

A graph of two categorical variables with levels whose rectangles represent proportion of data set in the y axis and the lengths of each rectangle in the x axis represent proportion of the categorical variable vs all categorical variables.

Q

Sample proportion?

A

X1, X2, …, Xn a random sample of size n where each X is a random variable, either 1 or 0, in which we take the average of the random variables and set it to p^, the proportion of successes, where each p^ is a point estimator.
