It allows you to more accurately predict what the data is telling you without looking at the whole large data set. This technique is commonly used in polls. Polling is a survey of a population. With polling, a sample of people are asked the same questions, and the answers are analyzed to generalize the sample results against the entirety of a population. Sampling allows for insight into the larger data from which generalizations about the whole data set are made.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin-top: 30px; font-size: 1.5rem; line-height: 1.8rem; cursor: auto;\">Prompt<\/h2>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 1rem; font-size: 19px; line-height: 28px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Use the<span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><a style=\"cursor: auto;\">Module Six Assignment Data Set<\/a><\/span><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">&nbsp;<\/span>to take a sample of around 10 percent.
