Data Collection and Organization - Statistical Research

There are many ways to express numerical information, the presentation of numerical information in graphical form can vary according to the needs of the person using the information. For example: using a pie chart emphasizes the relative part of each parameter of the whole, a chart with a line emphasizes the difference between the parts, and sometimes a standard list is the quickest and easiest way to convey what we want to convey. Just like the grocery shopping list at the store. Here are a number of options for displaying data graphically.
