Statistics
  • A diagram (opposite) for showing the frequencies of a variable that is categorical or discrete. The lengths of the bars are proportional to the frequencies. The widths of the bars should be equal. If the widths of the bars are negligible then the diagram may be called a line graph. Diagrams resembling bar charts were used in a theoretical context in the 14th century. See also compound bar chart; multiple bar chart.
