    The document defines key terms and concepts related to frequency distributions and charts used to present frequency data. It defines terms like bar chart, class frequency, classification, class limit, class marks, and cross tabulation. It also lists and describes common charts used to present grouped and ungrouped frequency data, including histograms, frequency polygons, pie charts, frequency tables, and maps. Finally, it provides rules for making graphs and brief descriptions of bar charts and histograms.

    Definitions of Terms and Concepts

    Bar Chart Class Diagrammatic presentation of frequency data for nominal classes by bars, proportional to the class frequencies One of the intervals into which the entire range of the variable has been divided: each of the intervals 3.0 -3.3, 3.4 -3.7, .5.0-5.3, is one class The number of observations in each class, also known as the absolute class frequency. The process of subdividing the range of values of a variable into class or groups. The values that mark the beginning and end of each class if measurement is accurate to the nearest tenth, then the class limits for the class 3.0-3.3 are 2.95 and 3.34. The variable values that demarcate each class; for example, 3.0 and 3.3 are, respectively, the lower and upper class marks of the class 3.0-3.3. A frequency table involving at least two variables that have been cross-classified.

    Class frequency Classification or grouping Class limit

    Class marks

    Cross tabulation

    The number of observations up to the end of the particular class. It is obtained by cumulating the frequencies or previous classes including the class in question. Frequency polygon Diagrammatic presentation of the frequency distribution of quantitative variable, with class frequencies plotted against class midmarks, the points being joined by straight lines. Frequency table or A tabular arrangement showing the number of times that data distribution with particular characteristics occur within a data set. Histogram Diagrammatic presentation of the frequency distribution of the quantitative variable, with areas of rectangles proportional to the class frequency. Ogive Graph of the cumulative relative frequency distribution. Ordered array Simple rearrangement of the individual observations in order of magnitude. Pie Chart Sectors of a circle, with areas proportional to class frequencies, used to present data in nominal classes. Relative class The absolute class frequency expressed as a fraction of the frequency total frequency. Cumulative class frequency

    Various Charts
    For the Ungrouped Data 1. Bar Chart 2. Line Chart 3. Pie Diagram For the Grouped Data 1. Histogram 2. Frequency Polygon 3. Frequency Curve For the Regional Data Map Chart

    Rules for Making Graphs


    1. All graphs & diagrams must be self explanatory yet concise titles, labels for axes, unit of measurement etc. 2. The labels and legends must be properly located 3. Lines in a graph should be thicker than the axis lines 4. Do not show more than three variables in one graph. Use distinct pattern for each variable 5. For comparing two or more groups, use same scale

    Bar Charts
    are one dimensional diagrams Bars of uniform width with length proportional to the values they represents are erected to the common base line.
