It’s been said that a picture is worth a thousand words. Good graphics or charts – in the right situation – are worth as least that much. They can be colorful, engaging, and simplify otherwise confusing information.
ExtremePresentation.com offers this (http://www.extremepresentation.com/uploads/images/choosing_a_good_chart.jpg) helpful graphic for choosing the right kind of chart.
Start in the “What would you like to show?” box in the center, then choose either Relationship, Comparison, Distribution or Composition. The graphic provides good ideas relevant to each choice option.
Juice Analytics has an online version of the chart chooser at http://chartchooser.juiceanalytics.com/
Happy charting!
