QUANTITATIVE APTITUDE
Bar Graphs: Given quantities can be compared by the height or length of a bar
graph. A bar graph can have either vertical or horizontal bars. You can compare
different quantities or the same quantity
at different times. In bar graph the data
is discrete. Presentation of data in this
form makes evaluation of parameters
comparatively very easy.
