5 - Creating A Chart

Hello, everyone! I hope you all revised from the last few lessons because we are nearing the end of this course. Today we will be focusing on creating a chart!

1. Wait a week or two for the results of the poll to come in. You don't want to only wait a few days and have a couple votes! Wait at least a week to have a solid, static amount of votes on your poll.

2. Choose which type of graph you will use for your chart! A bar chart is probably the safest choice, and most used in the APDD community, being easy to figure out and read. A pie chart is also very simple and neat, I would recommend it to people who only care about the overall data. A line chart is useful for showing trends, for example 'Do more women or men enjoy golf in the last two years?'. There any many other types of graphs but those three I would recommend the most.

3. Create the chart! This step is very straight forward and you will have to figure out most of it by yourself. I would recommend doing the chart traditionally (AKA on paper).

Your homework task is to create a chart with data I have given you.

1. Download or screenshot this image: https://postimg.org/image/1ab597pvmz/ The subject was 'Which Colour Are You?', referring back to the example flowchart I made in the first course.

2. Make a chart with the data. It can be any chart, I don't mind which one.

3. When you have finished, become a member of this group: https://www.goconqr.com/en-GB/groups/65081 We will get back to you as soon as possible with the invite.

4. Comment your chart or link to your chart using http://postimages.org on https://www.goconqr.com/en-GB/status_updates/8691084.
