Statistical visualization
Mathematica provides us with a wide variety of statistical plotting functions. Let's take a look at a few of them:
Distribution shapes
Histogram
SmoothHistogram
Histogram3D
PairedHistogram
DensityHistogram and so on
Charting
PieChart
BubbleChart
BarChart
SectorChart
PairedBarChart
3D versions of some of these charts
Miscellaneous
Gauges, such as AngularGauge, HorizontalGauge, VerticalGauge, BulletGauge, ClockGauge, and so on
Financial charts, such as CandlestickChart, TradingChart, FinancialIndicator, KagiChart, RenkoChart, and so on
To visualize the distribution shapes of empirical data, Mathematica provides different kinds of histogram-plotting functions. SmoothHistogram provides a smooth estimation of the shape, whereas Histogram, Histogram3D, and PairedHistogram give a discrete shape (which is often better to understand empirical data). DensityHistogram is a plot for visualizing spatial data density.
The most common charting functions are listed next. We have already used SectorChart...
