The purpose of computing descriptive statistics is to address the specific questions that the researcher had in mind while designing the study, and also can be used to discover important but overall hidden pattern in the data that would provide additional information on the problems being studied. The purpose of computing exploratory statistics is to detect serious defects in the data that may warrant taking corrective action before the researcher proceeds to inferential analysis (Bordens & Abbott, 2018).
