What Are the Names of Graphs?

Several types of graphs are used for displaying information in mathematics including the bar graph; pie nautical chart or circle graph; histogram; stem and leaf plot; dot plot; scatter plot; and time-series graphs. The type of graph called depends on whether the data is quantitative, qualitative or paired.

Bar graphs are used for displaying qualitative data. Each category in a set of qualitative data is represented past a bar, and the bars are arranged by order of frequency. Pie or circle graphs display information in the class of a pie. Each "slice" of the pie represents a different data group. A histogram is similar to a bar graph in that it uses bars, just information technology displays quantitative versus qualitative data.

Stalk and leaf plots separate quantitative data by the highest information point and the remaining points of value. The stem is used for the highest data point, while the leaf is used for the other values. Dot plots are graphs that combine the concepts of histograms and stem and leaf plots. Besprinkle plots display paired data using horizontal and vertical axes. Trends in the information are illustrated through correlation and regression. Time-series graphs display data at different points in fourth dimension, showing trends in data.
