Representing Data graphically There are several ways to represent data graphically. We are going to study 6 ways.
Histogram: a graph that displays the data by using contiguous vertical bars (unless the frequency of a class is 0) of various heights to represent the frequencies of the classes.
Frequency Polygon: a graph that displays the data by using lines that connect points plotted for the frequencies at the midpoints of the classes. The frequencies are represented by the heights of the points
Ogive: a graph that represents the cumulative frequencies for the classes in a frequency distribution
Pareto Chart: a chart that is used to represent a frequency distribution for a categorical variable, and the frequencies are displayed by the heights of vertical bars, which are arranged in order from highest to lowest
Some fancy variations!
Time series graph: graph representing data that occurs over a specific period of time
Pie Graph: A circle graph that is divided into sections or wedges according to the percentage of frequencies in each category of the distribution
Stem and leaf plot: A data plot that uses part of the data value as the stem and part of the data value as the leaf to form groups or classes
