Suppose you are interested in whether more hours of study per week would lead to higher grades. You want to investigate this among students at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. For this you want to select students from different programs, such as sociology, psychology, political science and anthropology.
If you want to display the distribution (distribution) of the number of study hours shown in a figure, what is the best way to show this show: a bar chart (bar graph) or a histogram? Why?
