    or large), the number of cylinders in the engine, the city driving miles per gallon, the
    highway driving miles per gallon, and the recommended fuel (diesel, premium, or
    regular).

    b. How many variables are in this data set?
    c. Which variables are categorical and which variables are quantitative?
    d. What type of measurement scale is used for each of the variables?
