Box Plot

Box and whisker plots are useful because they display groups of numerical data through quartiles.  Each plot has lines that extend outside of the box, known as whiskers.  Point laying outside of whiskers are known as skews.  Whiskers display information by extending outside the lower and upper quartiles.  This plot contains "whiskers" that extend outside of the plot.  The plot is showing the dynamics of a box a whisker plot. By showing this, the plot can be considered an box plot.
