Nominal Scale:
A nominal scale is really a list of categories to which objects can be classified. For example, people who receive a mail order offer might be classified as “no response,” “purchase and pay,” “purchase but return the product,” and “purchase and neither pay nor return.” The data so classified are termed categorical data.
