Stranger than Fiction, Speaking Class with Mr.Jonthon Coulson

            When the Old and New Cities of Jerusalem were reunited in 1967, a recently widowed Arab woman, who had been living in Old Jerusalem since 1948, wanted to see once more the house in which she formerly lived. Now that the city was one, she searched for and found her old home. She knocked on the door of the apartment, and a Jewish widow came to the door and greeted her. The Arab woman explained that she had lived there until 1948 and wanted to look around. She was invited in and offered coffee. The Arab woman said, "When I lived here, I hid some valuables. If they are still here, I will share them with you half and half." The Jewish woman refused. "If they belonged to you and are still here, they are yours." After much discussion back and forth, they entered the bathroom, loosened the floor planks, and found a hoard of gold coins. The Jewish woman said, "I shall ask the government to let you keep them." She did and permission was granted.
            The two widows visited each other again and again, and one day the Arab woman told her, "You know, in the 1948 fighting here, my husband and I were so frightened that we ran away to escape. We grabbed our belongings, took the children, and each fled separately. We had a three-month-old son. I thought my husband had taken him, and he thought I had. Imagine our grief when we were reunited in Old Jerusalem to find that neither of us had taken the child."
The Jewish woman turned pale, and asked the exact date. The Arab woman named the date and the hour, and the Jewish widow told her: "My husband was one of the Israeli troops that entered Jerusalem. He came into this house and found a baby on the floor. He asked if he could keep the house and the baby, too. Permission was granted."
            At that moment, a twenty-year-old Israeli soldier in uniform walked into the room, and the Jewish woman broke down in tears. "This is your son," she cried.
This is one of those incredible tales we hear. And the aftermath? The two women liked each other so much that the Jewish widow asked the Arab mother: "Look, we are both widows living alone. Our children are grown up. This house has brought you luck. You have found your son, or our son. Why don't we live together?"
And now they do.

Distribusi Frekuensi (Pengertian, Jenis Tabel, Macam-macam Grafik dan Cara Membuat Tabel)

1.      Pengertian Distribusi Frekuensi
a.       Distribusi Frekuensi adalah penyusunan data dalam kelas-kelas interval. (Kuswanto,2006)
b.       Distribusi Frekuensi adalah membuat uraian dari suatu hasil penelitian dan menyajikan hasil penelitian tersebut dalam bentuk yang baik, yakni bentuk stastistik popular yang sederhana sehingga kita dapat lebih mudah mendapat gambaran tentang situasi hasil penelitian. (Djarwanto,1982)
c.        Distribusi Frekuensi atau Tabel Frekuensi adalah suatu tabel yang banyaknya kejadian atau frekuensi (cases) didistribusikan ke dalam kelompok-kelompok (kelas-kelas) yang berbeda. (Budiyuwono,1987)
2.      Jenis-jenis Tabel Distribusi Frekuensi
a.       Tabel distribusi frekuensi data tunggal adalah salah satu jenis tabel statistic yang di dalmnya disajikan frekuensi dari data angka, dimana angka yang ada tidak dikelompokkan.
b.      Tabel distribusi frekuensi data kelompok adalah salah satu jenis tabel statistic yang di dalamnya disajikan pencaran frekuensi dari data angka, dimana angka-angka tersebut dikelompokkan.
c.       Tabel distribusi frekuensi kumulatif adalah salah satu jenis tabel statistic yang di dalamnya disajikan frekuensi yang dihitung terus meningkat atau selalu ditambah-tambahkan baik dari bawah ke atas mauapun dari atas ke bawah. Tabel distribusi frekuensi kumulatif ada dua yaitu tabel distribusi frekuensi kumulatif data tunggal dan kelompok.
d.      Tabel distribusi frekuensi relative; tabel ini juga dinamakan tabel persentase, dikatakan “frekunesi relatif” sebab frekuensi yang disajikan disini bukanlah frekuensi yang sebenarnya, melainkan frekuensi yang ditungkan dalam bentuk angka persenan.
 
3.      Macam-macam Grafik DF, Sifat dan Contohnya
·         Macam-macam Grafik
a.       Histogram. Sifatnya: Tinggi batang sesuai dengan nilai frekuensinya, dan batang satu dengan lainnya saling berdempetan, tidak ada jarak/ gap diantara batang.

b.      Poligon Frekuensi. Sifatnya: Ketinggian dari titik-titik sesuai dengan frekuensi kelas, dan segmen garis diperluas ke kanan dan kiri sehingga grafik dimulai dan berakhir pada sumbu horisontal.

c.       Ogive. Sifatnya: Distribusi frekuensi kumulatif yang menggambarkan diagramnya dalam sumbu tegak dan mendatar atau eksponensial.

  1. Menentukan Jumlah Kelas
K = 1 + 3,3 log n
   = 1 + 3,3 Log 80
   = 7,28 ---------Ø 7
  1. Mencari Range
Nilai Terkecil  : 5,45
Nilai Terbesar : 37,82
Range = Nilai terbesar – Nilai terkecil
          = 37,82 – 5,45
          = 32,37 ………..Ø 32
  1. Menentukan Panjang Kelas
Panjang Kelas = Range / Jumlah Kelas
                                      = 32/7
                                      = 4,57 …………….Ø 5
  1. Menentukan Kelas
