The word survey is used to describe a method to collect or gather information from a group of people (a population sample) in order to learn about their opinions, attitudes, and personal information. They are characterized by the standardized questions used to collect data, which means that every person responds to the same question. The size of the sample varies, and this depends on what it needs to be used for. This means that while some findings are made public, others are kept as private. Surveys are classified into three types: First, by their dimension, which refers to the size and type of the sample population (e.g. all the children in a country, students in public schools, political leaders, or consumers of a particular product or service). Second, they are classified by their method of data collection (e.g. telephone surveys, mail surveys, and interview surveys).	Third, they are classified by their content. While some surveys focus on opinions and attitudes towards an issue (like virtual communication or past traditions), others are related to factual characteristics, behaviors, memories and so forth (e.g. study habits, eating habits, traditions). Finally, to show the results of a survey in a visual way, we can use a pie graph or a bar chart. While a pie graph is a circle divided into segments or slices to represent a proportion of the data, a bar chart is a chart with rectangular bars that show the frequency of the results. To interpret the information in a graph, we should identify the purpose of the graph, recognize its variables and see the relation between labels, colors and numbers by looking at its title.
