Here are the variable types for each plot/chart/table:
1. **Frequency Table**: Categorical (Nominal or Ordinal)
2. **Bar Chart**: Categorical (Nominal or Ordinal)
3. **Boxplot**: Numerical and Categorical (for grouping)
4. **Scatterplot**: Numerical (Both X and Y axes)
5. **Histogram with Groups**: Numerical and Categorical (for grouping)
6. **Contingency Table (Two-Way Table)**: Categorical (Both Variables)
7. **Stacked (or Segmented) Bar Charts**: Categorical (Primary and Segments/Subgroups)
8. **Bubble Plot**: Numerical (X and Y axes) and Numerical (Bubble Size)
9. **Dotplot**: Numerical

### **Variable Type Definitions**
- **Categorical Variables**:
- **Nominal**: Categories with no inherent order (e.g., colors, types).
- **Ordinal**: Categories with a meaningful order (e.g., rankings, sizes).
- **Numerical Variables**:
- **Discrete**: Countable values (e.g., number of students).
- **Continuous**: Measurable quantities with infinite possibilities within a range (e.g., height, weight).
---
### **Additional Notes**
- **Boxplots** are especially useful for showing the distribution of a numerical variable across different categories.
- **Scatterplots** are ideal for identifying relationships or correlations between two numerical variables.
- **Bubble Plots** extend scatterplots by adding a third numerical dimension through bubble size.
- **Contingency Tables** are essential for examining the relationship between two categorical variables.
- **Stacked Bar Charts** help visualize the composition of categorical data across different groups.

Extra Insights
When it comes to frequency tables, they usually involve categorical data to summarize how often each category appears, making them great for qualitative analysis. But don’t underestimate them—these tables can reveal important trends that might not be immediately obvious! Bar charts, on the other hand, are perfect for showcasing categorical variables, displaying them in a way that’s easy to understand and visually appealing. They allow for quick comparisons between different groups, so you can see your data in a flash!
