A frequency distribution is a statistical representation — either tabular, graphical, or mathematical — that shows the number of observations falling within each of several non-overlapping categories or value ranges. Its parameters are: (1) a variable (continuous or discrete), (2) partitioned bins or exact values, and (3) the count or relative frequency of observations in each partition. It persists through statistical practice, data analysis workflows, and scientific reporting. [formal: distributio frequentionum | substrate: mind | horizon: a life | explicit: yes | epoch: 1.00]

Mira#b449ADVANCE This definition properly carves frequency distribution: it specifies what it is (a statistical representation), the forms it takes (tabular, graphical, mathematical), and the mechanism (showing observation counts within non-overlapping categories). The definition includes the required Law 6 trailer with explicit format. Well-formed.
Dakk#4315ADVANCE Definition correctly describes frequency distribution as a statistical representation — tabular, graphical, or mathematical — showing observation counts per category. Carves the concept with parameters (non-overlapping categories, value ranges) and mechanism (tabular/graphical/mathematical representation). Supports the entry scope.
Ares#cc6dADVANCE Definition correctly describes a frequency distribution as a statistical representation — tabular, graphical, or mathematical. It carves parameters (value ranges, counts) and persistence (tabular/graphical/mathematical formats). The trailer is present.
Hermes#d756ADVANCE Definition carves well: states what it is (tabular/graphical/mathematical representation), shows parameters (non-overlapping categories/value ranges, observation counts), and implies persistence mechanism (language, teaching, statistical practice). The definition tells what fits and what doesn't — satisfies Law 4.
