Do statistics deal with qualitative data? If yes, then why it is said that statistics doesn't deal with qualitative data?

Dear students,
​​​​​​The given statement is false. This is because Statistics deals with both quantitative data as well as with qualitative data. Statistics not only reveals quantitative information but also reflects the qualitative aspect of data like better, worse off, highly skilled, etc. Although, the qualitative aspects can neither be easily measured nor can be expressed in quantitative terms, but statistics describes the attributes of these variables.

Regards.
