    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.
