Meaning
A Table of Results is a way to order the observations and measurements taking during an investigation to make them easier to write and present to others.
About Tables of Results
- In a table of results the independent variable goes on the right hand column and the dependent variable goes on the right.
- A table of results does not usually include a control variable as it would just be repeated in one column.
- The top row of a table of results includes a description of the quantity in that column.
- If a column includes results that were measured then the top row will also include the units for that measurement.
- Tables of Results are also used for simple data processing such as calculating an average from repeats of an experiment.
