More charts, graphs and tables
Who is it for?
For those of you who already have some experience of interpreting numerical data and who understand basic statistics, but who are not confident in their ability to produce charts, graphs and tables.
What does it do?
This toolkit develops your skills in presenting numerical data, and includes tables, line graphs, bar charts, histograms, pie charts, and simple descriptive statistics. It provides a step-by-step guide for each form of presentation, and describes when it is appropriate to use them.
