TYPE OF CHART

BAR CHART
Bar chart or bar graph is a chart with rectangular bars with lengths proportional to the values that they represent. Bar charts are used for comparing two or more values that were taken over time or on different conditions, usually on small data sets. The bars can be horizontally lines or it can also be used to mass a point of view.
Example
The following table lists the number of seats allocated to each party group in European elections in 1999 and 2004. The results of 1999 have been multiplied by 1.16933, to compensate for the change in number of seats between those years.
This bar chart shows both the results of 2004, and those of 1999:

LINE CHART
A line chart or line graph is a type of graph, which displays information as a series of data points connected by straight line segments. It is a basic type of chart common in many fields. It is an extension of a scatter graph, and is created by connecting a series of points that represent individual measurements with line segments. A line chart is often used to visualize a trend in data over intervals of time, thus the line is often drawn chronologically.
Example
In the experimental sciences, data collected from experiments are often visualized by a graph that includes an overlaid mathematical function depicting the best-fit trend of the scattered data. This layer is referred to as a best-fit layer and the graph containing this layer is often referred to as a line graph.
For example, if one were to collect data on the speed of a body at certain points in time, one could visualize the data by a data table such as the following:

The table "visualization" is a good way of displaying
