A star plot compares multiple variables for each observation. This shows the crime rates of different cities.

Correlation matrix
A correlation matrix is done to see where there is a correlation among the data. is a calculated protein correlation matrix for phage T7. Correlated behavior ranges from high(red) to low(blue), and the triangular block of red reflects proteins involved in phage assembly, a highly coordinated process.
Similarity matrix
A similarity matrix is used to show how similar (or not) the variables are to one another. This image is an autocorrelation plot of the similarity matrix generated by the unstabilized weighted scanline buffer. It is very difficult to see any pattern in this matrix.

Stem and leaf plot
A stem and leaf plot uses the higher number as the stem and the secondary numbers as the leaf. These plots show the frequency of values. This shows the various ages of people at a family reunion.
Box plot
A box plot which is also known as box and Whisker Plot, is a summary of a set of data. The data in this plot shows the average stopping distances for an experimental car. Each type is represented by color.
Histogram
A histogram tablulates frequency. This histogram shows the number weeks of waiting time for a counterceptive disortder. It also shows the frequency and number of weeks of the counterceptive.
Parallel coordinate graph
A parallel coordinate graph represents each variable being graphed on a vertical axis; it explores the relationship among the variables. This can be seen in the image of the firewall graph using parallel coordinates.
