    LINE CHART
                    A  line chart is a type of graph that displays

                    continuous data at regular intervals. It is
                    generally used to highlight the changes that
                    take place in a value through a specified period
                    of time. It is also known as a frequency polygon.

                    A pie chart is shaped like a circle divided into
                    slices, each slice showing the relative size of
                    each value. The pie chart only displays one data
                    series in the form of comparative charts. It is
                    useful when you want to emphasise a significant

                    element.
