Bar chart expectations
Suppose you've asked 30 people, some young, some old, what their preferred flavor of pie is: apple or pumpkin. That data could be summarized in a side-by-side bar chart. Here are three possibilities for how it might look.
Which one of the bar charts shows no relationship between age
and flavor
? In other words, which shows that pie preference is the same for both young and old?
