Bar Graph


               A bar graph is the representation of the given data by rectangles or bars

               of different heights but the same width. Bars may be vertical or horizontal
               but the gap between them is uniform throughout. Each bar graph has a title.

               Example 2:  The bar graph shows the marks secured by 5 students

                                   in a class test of 10 marks.

                                               Marks obtained by 5 students in a class test
