side.

iv) Data Series — Data series are the bars, slices or other elements that show the data values. If there
are multiple data series in the chart, each will have a different colour or style.

v) Category Name — Category names are the labels, which are displayed on the X and Y-axis.

vi) PLOT AREA — Plot area is a window within the Chart area. It contains the actual chart itself, and
includes plotted data, data series, category, and value axis.

vii) Legend — It depicts the colours, patterns or symbols assigned to the data series. It helps to
differentiate the data.

viii) Chart Title — It describes the aim and contents of the chart.

ix) Gridlines — These can either be Horizontal or Vertical lines depending on the selected chart type.
