Charts and plots are graphic visualizations of your data with different symbols such as bars, lines, dots, or slices. There are many types of charts but the most common are bar charts, pie charts, histograms and the different plots like box plot, scatter plot or parallel coordinates plot. Other tools like word clouds or treemaps are also giving you the sensation to visualize your collected data in a different way.

Why Are Charts and Plots Popular?
The human brain is wired to recognize and understand visual images easier than only mere numbers. Through visualization, the brain can analyze trends, outliers, and gaps much faster than looking at a spreadsheet. Additionally, charts make your presentation, report, or lecture more entertaining for everybody.
