"What do you mean by data, and how would I use it?"
Data are recorded observations usually described in quantities or language. Think of sample-sizes, test scores, or user feedback. Researchers interpret data in meaningful ways using statistics.
Large sample sizes might provide significant results in studies concerning populations. Case studies, on the other hand, might provide different kinds of insights. Be aware that data can be misrepresented, so check the methodology of a study.
