Histograms




Histograms are a type of map that is used to organize data. The data is organized into a bar graph to allow easy analysis. There are many different options for the variables on a histogram, but the data is usually numerical. The horizontal axis usually contains the independent variable and the vertical axis usually contains the dependent variable. The example histogram showed uses the variables of score on a final exam verses number of students who received this score.
