Discrete Data Plots

Bar graphs, scatter plots, and more

Visualize discrete data using plots such as bar graphs or stem plots. For example, you can create a vertical or horizontal bar graph where the bar lengths are proportional to the values that they represent.

Topics

Types of Bar Graphs
Bar graphs are useful for viewing results over a period of time, comparing results from different data sets, and showing how individual elements contribute to an aggregate amount.
