Graphical Representation of Data Dr.R.Jayashree Asst.Prof (AGB) Veterinary College, Hebbal
Graph is a visual form of presentation of quantitative data. Graphic methods enable to present quantitative data in a simple, clear and effective manner in comparison to numerical facts.

Bar Graph A bar graph is a graphical representation of frequency distributions of ungrouped data. It is • A pictorial representation of the numerical data by a number of bars (rectangles) of uniform width erected vertically (or horizontally) with equal spacing between them. Dr. R Jayashree, Asst. Prof(AGB)

Histogram A histogram is a graphical representation of a continuous frequency distribution i.e. grouped frequency distributions. For each class, a rectangle is drawn with base as width of the class and height as the class frequency.
Dr. R Jayashree, Asst. Prof(AGB)
Histogram
The class-intervals are taken along the horizontal axis and the respective class frequencies on the vertical axis using suitable scales on each axis.

Histogram with unequal classes • As in equal classes the histograms are drawn except for the heights of the bars. • The height is adjusted so that the area of the rectangle is equal to the frequency of corresponding class. • This adjustment is done by taking the height of the bar proportional to the frequency density of each class. Dr. R Jayashree, Asst. Prof(AGB)

Frequency polygon • In a frequency distribution, the mid-value of each class is obtained. • Then on the graph paper, the frequency is plotted against the corresponding midvalue. • These points are joined by straight lines. These straight lines may be extended in both directions to meet the X - axis to form a polygon Dr. R Jayashree, Asst. Prof(AGB)

Cummulative Frequency curve • It is desirable to determine the number of observations that fall above or below a certain value rather than within the class interval. • The regular frequency distribution may be converted to cumulative frequency distribution and the graph is called as “Ogive” Dr. R Jayashree, Asst.

Area Graph
Symmetrical Graph
The frequencies are more or less symmetrically distributed, around a mean class
Dr. R Jayashree, Asst. Prof(AGB)
Skewed Distribution
The frequencies are more or less asymmetrically distributed, containing values that are substantially smaller on one of the sides, relative to the other: Dr. R Jayashree, Asst. Prof(AGB)
Distributions with long Tails
The frequencies are distributed so that there are a large number of classes at either end, with small frequencies compared to the central classes
Dr. R Jayashree, Asst. Prof(AGB)
Distributions with various "peaks" or modes
The distribution of frequencies has two or more "peaks", which we call modes, suggesting that the data comprise various distinct groups: Dr. R Jayashree, Asst. Prof(AGB)

Advantages of Diagrammatic Representation
• • • •
Give a birds eye view of numerical set of data. More appealing. Highlight the salient features of the data. Self explanatory Dr. R Jayashree, Asst. Prof(AGB)
Limitations • Cannot be analyzed further • Only useful to common man and not much to an expert. • Primarily serve in comparative study and functional relationship between the variables under study.

Bar Diagram • This consists of a group of equidistant rectangles or bars one for each group or category of data in which the values or magnitudes are represented by the length or height of the rectangles. • All the bars should be uniform and should be constructed on the same base line for a single study.

Simple Bar Diagram • In this the magnitude of the observation of the observations are represented by the heights or lengths of the bar. • Limitation: It allows studying only one character only at a time.
Dr. R Jayashree, Asst. Prof(AGB)
Sub divided bar Diagram or Component bar Diagram • It is used to subdivide the magnitude of the given variable into various parts or sub-classes or components. • It useful for presenting several items or characteristics of a variable or a category simultaneously.
