How do you visualize frequencies?
A Histogram, as you've guessed from its name which is forthrightly revealing, is one of the best ways to visualize frequency over a time period. A histogram visualizes a frequency distribution of a single category over an extended history, allowing you to identify its value in a given time interval.
What is the best chart to show frequency?
Box plots show distribution based on a statistical summary, while column histograms are great for finding the frequency of an occurrence. Scatter plots are best for showing distribution in large data sets.
Which visual representations can be used for frequency distribution?
Frequency tables, pie charts, and bar charts can be used to display the distribution of a single categorical variable. These displays show all possible values of the variable along with either the frequency (count) or relative frequency (percentage).
