Statistics is an important field of study because
of its application in all research areas. Statistical methods are widely used as
an ultimate way to prove or disprove the hypotheses which are the basis of any
future research. Enumeration Statistics has been used for centuries as the basis
of policy and planning for the countries. All this makes the study of Statistics
