Detailed Solution & Explanation
The organization of statistical data involves several steps:
1. **Classification**: The process of separating and arranging items according to similar characteristics and grouping them into various homogeneous classes. It helps in simplifying raw data and making it comparable.
2. **Tabulation**: The systematic representation of classified data in rows and columns.
3. **Editing**: The process of scrutinizing data for errors and inconsistencies.
Therefore, separating items based on similarity and grouping them into classes is called classification.
Hence, **Option A** is the correct answer.
