    Diagrams

    • A diagram is a visual representation of information that uses symbols, images, and/or charts to convey meaning
    • Types of diagrams:
      • Block diagrams: show relationships between components
      • Schematic diagrams: show detailed, technical information
      • Pictorial diagrams: use images to represent information
    • Diagrams are useful for:
      • Illustrating complex systems or processes
      • Highlighting relationships between components
      • Simplifying complex information

    Flowcharts

    • A flowchart is a diagram that shows the sequence of steps in a process
    • Flowcharts are useful for:
      • Illustrating decision-making processes
      • Showing the sequence of events in a process
      • Identifying potential problems or bottlenecks
    • Common symbols used in flowcharts:
      • Rectangles: represent processes or actions
      • Diamonds: represent decisions or branching points
      • Arrows: represent the flow of the process

    Charts

    • A chart is a visual representation of data that uses symbols, colors, and/or images to convey meaning
    • Types of charts:
      • Bar charts: compare categorical data
      • Pie charts: show proportional relationships
      • Scatter charts: show relationships between variables
    • Charts are useful for:
      • Comparing data across different categories
      • Showing trends or patterns in data
      • Highlighting relationships between variables

    Graphs

    • A graph is a visual representation of numerical data that uses points, lines, or curves to convey meaning
    • Types of graphs:
      • Line graphs: show trends or patterns over time
      • Histograms: show the distribution of continuous data
      • Scatter plots: show relationships between variables
    • Graphs are useful for:
      • Showing trends or patterns in data
      • Identifying correlations between variables
      • Illustrating complex relationships between variables
