Data Anlaysis Toolbox.

While writing my data analysis toolbox, I decided that I would pre determine a list of restaurants at which I will distribute my survey. The restaurants will be located within New Orleans, mainly the French Quarter, and surrounding cities such as Metairie and Kenner. I will attempt to have an equal amount of restaurants that serve native cuisine to those that serve food that isn’t unique to our city. The variables being measured will be the amount of business each restaurant receives and when they have the most customer traffic. I will attempt to get a count of business level at specific times of the day, namely breakfast, if applicable, lunch and dinner. Also, I would like to see on which days of the week business is the heaviest, and if certain holidays or times of the year are heavier than others. The level of business will be rated on a scale that goes from 1-10 or 1-5. A rating of 1 will be the least business and either 10 or 5 will stand for the most business. The rating will be determined by hopefully the manager of each restaurant. I would also like to include something in my survey that will help measure the amount of tourists in the restaurant as accurately as possible. I will record my findings using either a dot plot or box chart displaying the average rating for each restaurant. I will find the min, max, median, and average rating for each to represent the numerical interpretations. The point of gathering the data will be to see whether or not restaurants that serve traditional New Orleans food really do in fact get more business in its native setting, or do those that serve food that is not unique to New Orleans, or considered traditional, receive more business.
