Number Diary - is a type of diary where day is described not in words but in numbers. It's done by giving ratings, usually on 0-10 scale, to different aspects of person's life, for example: Love, Work, Health etc. When Love is rated as 7, it means that it was quite enjoyable, 5 means "OK" and 3 means that it was deffinitelly bad.

This way of recording past has its own benefits and drawbacks. The main benefit is that number rows can be statistically analyzed and information can be displayed on charts, giving to user the ability to view how each area of his life was changing during time. Usually following statistical tools are applied for the interpretation of the data in Number Diary: correlation, moving average, standard deviation, trend. The main drawback of this type of diary is inability to describe events. As the result this diary only tracks how subjective estimates of topics of interest are changing during time.

First Number Diary was created in august 2015 by Joans Dorohovs in the form of android application for a phone. Number Diary can be also organized in an Excel document.
