What Is Univariate, Bivariate, and Multivariate Analysis?
Univariate analysis is when there is only one variable. This is the simplest form of analysis like trends, you can’t perform causal or relationship analysis this way. For example, growth in the population of a specific city in the last 50 years.

Bivariate analysis is when there are two variables. You can perform causal and relationship analysis. This could be the gender-wise analysis of growth in the population of a specific city.

Multivariate analysis is when there are three or more variables. Here you analyze patterns in multidimensional data, by considering several variables at a time. This could be the break up of population growth in a specific city based on gender, income, employment type, etc.
