Essential Graphing
Essential Graphing describes all of the different graphs and elements that you can use to visualize your data:
• Graph Builder interactively creates many different types of graphs. See “Graph Builder” and “Graph Builder Examples”.
• Bubble Plot creates a scatterplot that represents its points as circles, or bubbles. Bubble plots can be dynamic (animated over time) or static (fixed bubbles that do not move). See “Bubble Plots”.
• Scatterplot Matrix shows an ordered collection of bivariate graphs. See “Scatterplot Matrix”.
• Parallel Plot draws connected line segments that represent each row in a data table. See “Parallel Plots”.
• Cell Plot draws a rectangular array of cells where each cell corresponds to a data table entry. See “Cell Plots”.
• 3D Scatterplot shows the values of numeric columns in the associated data table in a rotatable, three-dimensional view. See “Scatterplot 3D”.
• Contour Plot constructs contours of a response in a rectangular coordinate system. See “Contour Plots”.
• Ternary Plot displays the distribution and variability of three-part compositional data. See “Ternary Plots”.
• Maps can be used in Graph Builder, but also in other platforms, as background maps. See “Maps”.
