The Situation
For the numerical section of our packaging project, I have decided to survey CD covers. Having a broad mind for music a have a variety of music in my collection. My favourite type of music is dance/trance because I like music with a beat which can be danced to in the likes of a night club.
Planning
A problem with this selection is what variant to use to classify the CDs, obviously size would not be an ideal choice because there is no variation. One possible unit of measurement is colour, most CD covers use colour to make them more recognisable, appealing or eye-catching to a possible purchaser.
Obviously some covers will be better decorated than others and thus will display a whole rainbow of colours, these can be classed as having ‘lots’ of colours. CDs that have more than 4+ colours will be recorded ‘lots’ of colours. I will choose a selection of CDs at random, roughly 20% of my collection (20 CDs).
