Question
Answer the following questions, choosing the correct answer:
Histogram and column diagram are the same method of presentation of data (True/ False).
✓

Answer

False.
Explanation:
A histogram and a column/ bar diagram may look similar, but there are certain differences between them such as:
  1. A histogram is a two-dimensional diagram, whereas a column or bar diagram is a one-dimensional diagram.
  2. A histogram has no space between two rectangles, but a bar diagram has equal space between two rectangles.
  3. A histogram is drawn for a continuous variable, whereas a bar diagram is drawn for both discrete and continuous variables.
Thus, a histogram and column diagram are two methods of presenting data.
