Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Discrete variables are those that can only take on specific, separate values, such as counts or whole numbers. The number of cars in a parking lot is a count and a whole number, making it a discrete variable. The other options are continuous variables, as they can take on any value within a range (temperature, time) or can be measured with a high degree of precision (body weight).
