New Features in Excel 2016

In this lesson, you will learn...

1. About the new chart types available to organize data in Excel 2016.

Excel 2016 provides a number of new features.

New Charts

Microsoft 2016 provides six new chart types to help you visualize your data. These new charts are:

• Treemap: The treemap chart can be used to spot patterns; it organizes your data in a hierarchical view. The
trees "branches" are rectangles and smaller rectangles. It uses color and proximity to organize data into
categories.

• Sunburst: This chart is also known as a ring chart. A sunburst chart displays data hierarchically. The innermost
rings are the top of the hierarchy.

• Histogram: A histogram chart is used to display frequency data in columns.

• Waterfall: The waterfall chart is useful when you are adding and subtracting data. This type of chart keeps a
running total of the data, displayed as columns.
• Box & Whisker: This chart type organizes data to show the means and outliers of the data, by arranging it in
quartiles. The "whiskers" are lines that indicate variability that is outside of the upper and lower quartiles.

• Pareto: This type of chart is a type of histogram that sorts data with columns, in descending order, and then a
line showing the cumulative total percentage.

The treemap and sunburst charts are available from the Insert Hierarchy Chart drop-down from the Insert tab,
Charts group. Select Insert Waterfall or Stock

Chart for the waterfall chart; select Insert Statistical Chart for the histogram, pareto, or box & whisker chart.
