Histogram
Bars that count how many values fall in each range.
The idea
A histogram groups values into ranges and draws a bar for how many fall in each, so you see the shape of the data: its centre, spread, skew and gaps. The choice of bin width changes the look, so try a few. It is where to start with any new set of numbers.
Where to use it
- Ages, salaries and test scores
- Response times and wait times
- Finding gaps and outliers in data
- A smooth curve laid over the bars
Templates
