Slide 8Presentation of Data
1.TABULATION:
• Tables are devices that are used to present the data in
simple form and probably the first and most
commonly used method for presenting information,

Pie Chart/Circle Graph
A pie chart is a circular chart in which the circle is
divided into sectors.  Each sector visually represents
an item in a data set to match the amount of the item
as a percentage or fraction of the total data set. It is
suitable for 4 or 5 categories.

SIMPLE BAR CHART
• A graph consisting of parallel, usually vertical bars or
rectangles with lengths proportional to the frequency
with which specified quantities occur in a set of data
• Suitable for more than 5 categories
• The bars are separated by appropriate spaces
• The height of rectangle represents the frequency or the
magnitude.

MULTIPLE BAR GRAPH
When each category of data is further subdivided into two
or more categories. Multiple bars are used to present the
ordinal data as well.

Slide 33
Histogram
A bar graph in which the horizontal scale represents
the class interval/boundaries and the vertical scale
represents the frequencies. The area of each block or
rectangle is proportional to the frequency.

Slide 36Relative Frequency Histogram
Has the same shape and horizontal scale as a
histogram, but the vertical scale is marked with
relative frequencies.

Slide 37Frequency Polygon
Uses line segments connected to points directly
above at the midpoint of the class interval

Slide 39Ogive/Cumulative Frequency Polygons
A line graph that depicts cumulative frequencies

Slide 40Dot Plot
Consists of a graph in which each data value is
plotted as a point along a scale of values
Figure 2-5
DR ATHAR KHAN - LCMD
Slide 41Stem-and Leaf Plot
Represents data by separating each value into two
parts: the stem (such as the leftmost digit) and the
leaf (such as the rightmost digit)

Scatter Diagram
Scatter diagram shows the relationship between two
quantitative variables .
A plot of paired ( x, y) data with a horizontal x-axis and a
vertical y-axis

When statistical data refer to geographic or
administrative areas, it is presented either as “Statistical
Maps” or “Dot maps”
Slide 47PICTOGRAM

Pictograms are a popular method of presenting data to
the “man in the street”.
Small pictures or symbols are used to present the data.
Pictograms are a form of bar charts.
