What is quantitative analysis?

Max Points: 5.0

If someone were to ask you, “What is quantitative analysis? What does that term mean?” how would you respond? Include in your answer the reasons a researcher would have for performing quantitative analysis of his or her data. Once you have given your response, read those of your fellow classmates and ask questions about anything that is unclear to you in their answers. If you disagree with something another student wrote, explain to that student why you think their answer was wrong.
