Statistical Research: A Line Graph

Paper Summary:

This paper addresses the identification and understanding of a simple graph. This graph is a line graph as opposed to other types of graphs such as pie charts, bar graphs or scatter plot graphs, and shows how one occurrence is related to another. The variables measured on this graph are pulse rate, heart beats per minute and time measured in minutes. The rising and falling of the pulse rate is followed as time ticks by for a period of five minutes.

From the Paper:

"What is the point of this paper is to study what exactly a line graph consists of, what its best uses are, how it compares to other types of charts and graphs, and if it is indeed the correct sort of graph to use in such a situation as this. The line graph will be defined by what sort of data it best represents, what type of variables can and are used with it, and how these factors come into play with the example line graph to be shown and discussed. Finally, factors which alter or corrupt data that is shown on this or other graphs will be discussed."
