1. Multiple Bar Chart
2. Percentage Component Bar Chart
I am confused about these two bar chart sir; i think “Multiple Bar Chart” and “Compound Bar Chart” are the same.September 30, 2015 at 7:18 am #274190I suggest you look at pages 10 and 11 of our free Lecture Notes where you will see examples of both.
Multiple bar charts have separate bars for each element.
Compound bar charts have one bar split into sections for each element.Its not so easy to explain in words, which is why I suggest that you look at the examples in the Lecture Notes – it is easier to see in a picture 🙂
September 30, 2015 at 8:47 am #274205In Page 10; Compound bar charts have separate bars for each element. (Department 2 and Department 1)
In Page 11; Components bar charts have one bar split into sections for each element. (Series 1, Series 2 and Series 3)
There is no examples of Multiple Bar Chart.
* So, if Multiple bar charts have separate bars for each element then Compound bar chart in page 10 has similar chart; then both Multiple and Compound chart are same.
* If Compound bar charts have one bar split into sections for each element then Component bar chart in page 11 has similar chart; then both Compound and Component chart are same.
This is what is confusing me sir.September 30, 2015 at 12:06 pm #274235Sorry for confusing you – I mistyped before 🙁
Multiple and compound are the same, with separate bars.
Component has single bar split into sections.
