The only problem is the amount of work that stacks up while I am gone. We now offer translation from several languages to English. We are adding new languages daily, so please inquire. The previous issue of this newsletter dealt with the use of figures. However, as mentioned in prior issues of this newsletter, you should not present the same data in both.
Line graphs are probably the most commonly used type of graph in scientific writing.
They show continuous variables and may demonstrate trends or movements over time. They range from simple representations of results to complex statistical analysis. However, they are more difficult to understand than bar graphs. When using a line graph, it is important to keep them simple, to distinguish different variables with different symbols and to label each line. Logarithmic graphs are similar but use a logarithmic scale.
