Simply graph in which the entire circle represents 100% (Not 360
degrees) of data to be displayed.
The circle (Pie) is divided into percentage slices that show the
largest shares of data.
Shows relative proportiory.

5: HISTOGRAM
It is graphical picture of a frequency table prepared by dividing the data range into sub
groups and counting the no.of points in each sub-group. The no. of points (The
frequency) is then plotted as a height on the diagram in bar graph form.

METHOD OF USE
Collect paired sets of data on causes and effects and use scatter diagram to
check for correction between the sets of data.
Use atleast 30 values, preferably around 100.

8: RUN CHART
A run chart or time series plot permits the study of observed data
for trends or patterns over time, where X-axis is time and Y-axis,
The measured variable.
Run charts are employed to visually represent data they are used
to monitor a system to see whether or not the long range average
is changing.
Run charts are simplest tool to construct and use point are plotted
on the graph in order in which they become available.
Run charts are used when you need to do the simplest possible
display of trends within observation points over a specified time
period.
Run chart is common to graph the result of a process such as
machine down time, yield, scrap, and productivity as they very
over time.
