ABSTRACT
A computer is a
processor of information. Said in another way, its an electronic device
which has the ability to accept data from the keyboard as an (input device),
process it in accordance with a pre-defined program to produce a useful result
from the printer or monitor as an output device. It can also store
processed information. The first electronic computer, where produce in
1930’s, by Dr. John Antanasoff and Clifford Berry and it was later advanced by
another contributors called Dr John W. Marechly and BcKert in 1940’s, who
studied the manuscript and came up with the ENIAL (Electronic Numeric
Zutergrator and calculator) which allows fuster retrieves and processing of
information.
The escalating rate of
population has made computerization imperative in the country between 1990 and
1998 alone, the manual statistical data of the country has reached to a very
high standard. The board of governors in the statistical presentation in
Nigeria (census) finds it hard to get the accurate population of the country
due to the inability of getting relevant information about the population a
particular area.
It was against this
background that the governments comes to inevitable conclusion that the answer
lies on computerization. It is therefore the challenge of this research
work to look into the factors hindering the statistical presentation of data
and how computer system.

INTRODUCTION
Statistic is
scientifically the method of organizing, summarizing presenting and analyzing
collected data coupled with the drawing of valid conclusion and reasonable
decision.
In a close view, the
term statistic is used to denote the data themselves or numbers derived
from the data such as averaged when speaking of employment statistic, accident
any events statistics etc. After collecting statistics data the
investigation has to classify and present them in form that make the important
features of his subject matter easily grasped and integrated. The methods
of presenting data are as follows:
(i) The
text method
(ii) The
semi text method
(iii) The
tabulat method
(iv) Diagrammatic
and geographic method
In this write up we are concentrating on
diagrammatic and graphic method which is related to our area of study. The
diagrammatic and graphic method of presenting statistical data was introduced
in the letter part of the eighteenth century by William Playfair, which consist
of using diagrams charts and graphs in presenting data. This entails to
readiness and quickly understanding of the presented data
Fortunately, information processing technology
made a breakthrough in the invention and development of the computer system. A
computer is s machine or electronic devices which stores data, analyze it and
produce information as required from the data. The manual presentation of data
which involves the using protractors and others in platting of graph, drawing
pie charts and others is time consuming and it also create s lot of stress to
the investigation which may result to in accurate calculation of the presented
data
As the world grow in to
a computer one and manual presentation of statistical data couldn’t help in the
accurate calculation of the existing population. But with the introduction of
the computer into the statistical world the computerize system present a
terrific advantage over manually based system in that they enable the
investigator to bring together promptly and accurate result of the population
of a particular area
In Nigeria today, there
has been a lot of misconception about the introduction of computer and its
antecedent effect. Some had gone as far as saying that the impersonal effect
associated with the application of computers will eventually lead to
unemployment, while there is not altogether false, there are those that I think
the introduction of computers in statistical presentation of data is a welcome
development that had been log awaited.
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
This project was design
due to :
(a) Inaccurate
result always yielded due to manual presentation of data
(b) Time
consuming of manual presentation of statistical data
(c) To
give the investigator total relaxation
(d) To
avoid waste of energy in drawing and plotting of graphs
PUPORSE OF THE STUDY
This project is used to
develop a software that will be used for charting in statistical presentation
of data . the programme is designed in such a way that it interacts with the
investigator and the investigator will give his own command on how he want the
chart to be. The charting can be in :
(i) Pie
method
(ii) Tabular
method
(iii) Graphic
method
The pie method take the
form of pie charts which is drawn in form of a circle showing part of the
total statistical data presented. Pie chart area effective diagram used for
presenting data of proportion or percentages of a whole. The tabular method
involves the systematic arrangement of facts and figures in series of boxes
made up of rows and column, which makes the table easy to read and facilitates
quick comparison
The graphic form can be
seen inform of bar charts which is a block diagram in which the length of the
bar is proportional to the magnitude under consideration. They are used to show
comparative figures in statistical presentation of data, several bars are placed
together to facilitate comparison.
AIMS AND
OBJECTIVES
This study looks into
the difficulties and time consuming, the investigator finds himself into,
the charting for statistical presentation was computerized to reduce most of
this difficulties.
The study is therefore
designed to bring into account an overview of the application o computers in
the various service being rendered by t he investigator and how the
application of computers has affected the efficiency of statistical
presentation
SCOPE OF THE STUDY
In this research work,
the only considered difficulty is time consuming encountered by the
investigator while carrying out statistical research of the population of a
particular area, which gives him a lot of stress in calculating of figures,
drawing of charts and a lot of time will be wasted while carrying out the
research manually .
But with the help of
computer charting, the difficulties and time consuming will be
eliminated. The survey is restricted to civil servants working with
statistical presentation of data in Nigeria.
