ERROR BARS WITHBOX GRAPH

ERROR BARS WITH BOXGRAPH

Description:

An error bar is a line through a point on a graph, parallel to one of the axes, which represents the uncertainty of the corresponding coordinate of the point.
Error Bars help to indicate estimated error or uncertainty to give a general sense of how exact a measurement is.

• Error Bars can be applied to graphs such as Scatter Plots, Dot Plots, Bar Charts or Line Graphs.
  
• Error Bars work by drawing cap-tipped lines that extend from the centre of the plotted data point (or edge with Bar Charts).
• The length of an Error Bar helps reveal the uncertainty of a data point:

• a short Error Bar shows that values are concentrated, showing that the plotted average value is more likely,
• while a long Error Bar would indicate that the values are more spread out and less reliable.

• Represented as X vs (Y1,Z1,[Y2,Z2]....)
