Abstract

The objective of this study is to carry out an analysis about the reasons for determining the increase in foreign citizens in Ecuador, because in recent years there has been an increase in migrants in the country. For this, it has been considered to obtain the data from a database that was provided by the Institute of Statistics and Census (INEC), composed of about 7 million data, where a sample of 1 million records was obtained. With the help of a specialized and freely accessible programming algorithm for Statistical Analysis such as the R language, it was observed that there are variables that are directly related and allow us to know to what extent travelers tend to choose the country as an option for transfer, according to the analysis it has been noted that 50.06% of these foreigners enter and 49.93% leave the country and that one of the reasons why foreigners come to the country is for tourism.
