Histograms and stem-and-leaf plots
It's not easy to see patterns or relationships when all you have are large lists of numbers. We use dot plots, histograms, and stem and leaf plots to display quantitative data so it is easier to understand what the data is saying.
Describing and comparing distributions
To describe a distribution of quantitative data, we talk about its shape, center, and spread. We also use these features to compare distributions of data.
