The advantage in a stem-and-leaf plot is that all values are listed, unlike a histogram, which gives classes of data values. A line graph is often used to represent a set of data values in which a quantity varies with time. These graphs are useful for finding trends.  A bar graph is a chart that uses either horizontal or vertical bars to show comparisons among categories.

You can think of each slice of the pie or each bar as a part of the whole. The numerical versions of this are a list of fractions, decimals and percents. By the end of this section we will be able to look at one of these charts and produce the corresponding fractions, decimals, and percents.

In this section, we will look at several different types of graphs. However, our goal in this class is not just to identify or create a certain type of graph but rather to become informed consumers of information and critical thinkers who are actively engaged in the world around them.

When the bars have gaps, we have a bar graph representing either a qualitative or discrete quantitative variable.
