Abstract
Graphs are used to inspect and display patterns in data. Appropriately drawn graphs are, in our opinion, the best way to gain an understanding of what data have to say. In this chapter we present several of the types of graphs and plots we will be using throughout. We discuss the visual impact of the graphs and relate them to the tabular presentation of the same material.
