Finding the Tally of a categorical column
The Tally tool can be useful for quickly summarizing counts or percentages. Tally is found in Tables under the Stat menu. We will open one of the sample data files that come with Minitab and find the count and percentages of males and females listed in the dataset.
How to do it…
The following instructions will open the Department.MTW worksheet and then display the counts and percentages of male and female staff:
- Go to the File menu and select Open Worksheet….
- Click on the button labeled Look in Minitab Sample Data folder.
- Open the
Department.MTWworksheet. - Navigate to Stat | Tables then Tally individual Variables….
- Enter
Genderinto the Variables: section. - Check the box for Percents as shown in the following screenshot. We should have both Counts and Percents selected.
- Click on OK.
How it works…
Tally can be used very quickly to show counts and percentages of data in columns:
The results in the preceding screenshot show us that 52 percent of the 50 total individuals listed are female. We could also select cumulative counts/ percentages and store the results back into the worksheet.
