Histogram - step-column chart that displays a summary of the variations in (frequency distribution of) quantities that fall within certain lower and upper limits in a set of data. Often used interchangeably with the term “chart.”

Though a graph usually has four quadrants representing the positive and negative values of the variables, usually only the north-east quadrant is shown when the negative values do not exist or are of no interest. The perpendicular axis intersect at a point called origin, and are calibrated in the units of the quantities represented. Typically, an independent variable is represented on the horizontal line (X-axis) and an dependent variable on the vertical line (Y-axis).
