1. Nominal Scale. Nominal variables (also called categorical variables) can be placed into categories. They don’t have
a numeric value and so cannot be added, subtracted, divided or multiplied. They also have no order; if they appear to
have an order then you probably have ordinal variables instead.
3. Interval Scale. An interval scale has ordered numbers with meaningful divisions. Temperature is on
the interval scale: a difference of 10 degrees between 90 and 100 means the same as 10 degrees
between 150 and 160. Compare that to high school ranking (which is ordinal), where the difference
between 1st and 2nd might be .01 and between 10th and 11th .5. If you have meaningful divisions,
you have something on the interval scale.

4. Ratio Scale. The ratio scale is exactly the same as the interval scale with one major difference: zero is meaningful. Bayesian Statistics and Probability
For example, a height of zero is meaningful (it means you don’t exist). Compare that to a temperature of zero, which Descriptive Statistics: Charts, Graphs and Plots.
