✓

Answer

Yes, there are advantages in classifying things.The following points highlight the advantages of classification:
  1. Simplification: Classification facilitates the arrangement of data in a presentable form which appears to be brief and simple for analysis.
  2. Effective: Classification enhances the usage of data as it brings out similarity within the diverse set of data. Thus, classification of things is more effective and saves time when searching for information from huge data.
For example: Books in your school library are classified according to subjects as English, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, GK and general story books. This enables students to refer to the particular subject book for detailed study. Thus, it saves the student's valuable time and effort during the course of study.
