    Histogram Graph: A histogram is a

    graphical representation of data points organized


    into user-specified ranges.
    A histogram is a graph that shows the frequency
    of numerical data using rectangles.

    Example 1: The following table gives the lifetime of 400


    neon lamps. Draw the histogram for the below data.

    Lifetime (in hours) Number of lamps

    300 – 400 14

    400 – 500 56
    500 – 600 60

    600 – 700 86

    700 – 800 74

    800 – 900 62

    900 – 1000 48
    Example 2: In a mathematics test of 100 marks. Few
    students got under 20 marks and a few got 70 marks or
    above. Group them into intervals of varying sizes as
    follows:
    Marks Number of Students
    0−10 4
    10−20 7
    20−30 10
    30−40 10
    40−50 20
    50−60 20
    60−70 15
    70-80 8
    Total 90
    Stem And Leaf Graph:
    A Stem and Leaf Plot is a special table where
    each data value is split into a "stem" (the first digit
    or digits) and a "leaf" (usually the last digit).
    For e.g"32" is split into "3" (stem) and "2" (leaf).
    • It gives a concise representation of data.
    • The data are grouped and all the original data are
    shown.
    • Does not work well for very large data sets.

    Example 1: Construct a stem-and-leaf plot for the


    following set of data:
    {28 13 26 12 20 14 21 16 17 22
    17 25 13 30 13 22 15 21 18 16 21 18 31 15 19}

    Stem Leaf
    1 23334556677889
    2 011122568
    3 01
    Example 2: A teacher asked 10 of her students
    how many books they had read in the last
    12 months. Their answers were as follows:
    12, 23, 19, 6, 10, 7, 15, 25, 21, 12
    Construct a stem and leaf graph of following data:
    Sol:
    Stem Leaf

    1 29052
    2 351
