Compare two or more sets of data across the same categories. Your work saves in this browser as you go.
A category is one name along the bottom, such as Week 1. A data set is one group of numbers you want to compare against another, such as Sunlight against Shade. Each row is a category, and each data set gets its own column of numbers.
Side by side bars compare the sets against each other. Stacked bars show how the sets add up to a whole. Use side by side when the question is which set is bigger, and stacked when the question is what makes up the total.
Every set gets a pattern as well as a color, so the graph still works in black and white or for someone who cannot tell the colors apart.
Leave a box empty when a set has no number for that category. It simply is not drawn.
What the categories along the bottom are.
What you counted or measured. Every set shares this axis.
Add a category name and at least one number, then choose Graph my data.
