Graphique qui met en évidence les variations d'une valeur en fonction des variations d'une autre valeur, et qui peut être construit: avec des divisions équidistantes pour les deux coordonnées, avec des divisions suivant une échelle logarithmique pour une des coordonnées, ou pour les deux. 3, record 1, French, - diagramme%20cart%C3%A9sien

Le terme coordonnées cartésiennes (et ses synonymes) a un sens strict qui désigne les coordonnées rectilignes, c'est-à-dire, les coordonnées orthogonales et non orthogonales. Cependant, l'usage a fait subir à ce terme une extension de sens; puisque les coordonnées non orthogonales sont rarement utilisées, le terme coordonnées cartésiennes indique souvent uniquement les coordonnées orthogonales. 3, record 1, French, - diagramme%20cart%C3%A9sien
