A quantitative variable is a single numerical value that expresses some quantity for a given data point.
It is used when there is a need to measure and analyze numerical data, such as height, weight, or temperature as features.
Quantitative variables can either be discrete (e.g., number of customer complaints) or continuous (e.g., size of a field).
Quantitative variables are important because they provide a precise and measurable way to represent numerical data, enabling models to process and analyze numerical information effectively.
