A chart utilizing a series of vertical bars to depict data. 3, record 1, English, - vertical%20bar%20chart
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
The column or vertical bar chart's primary purpose is to depict numerical values of a given item over a period of time ... These values are represented by the height of the columns. This type of chart accents the individual dates of the plottings rather than the trend. [The columns] should all be the same width ... 7, record 1, English, - vertical%20bar%20chart
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
In technical sense, a chart with vertical bars is properly described as a column chart, while a chart with horizontal bars is known as a bar chart. 8, record 1, English, - vertical%20bar%20chart

Les diagrammes à colonnes [...] consistent en plusieurs rectangles également espacés, de même largeur, et dont les bases sont placées sur une même horizontale. Les hauteurs de ces rectangles sont proportionnelles aux grandeurs représentées. 6, record 1, French, - diagramme%20%C3%A0%20colonnes

L’utilisation de la représentation graphique en colonnes ou en tuyaux d’orgue évite [le] risque de confusion puisque la largeur de colonne coïncide avec la durée de la période à laquelle elle correspond [...]. Il est d’ailleurs plus logique de signifier l’activité pendant une certaine durée par un symbole graphique dont la largeur lui correspond : le point [...] évoque davantage le simple résultat d’une mesure «instantanée». 7, record 1, French, - diagramme%20%C3%A0%20colonnes

The shape of the histogram reflects this, forming a broad peak that is highest near the middle of the brightness range. The breadth of this histogram peak indicates the significant brightness variability in the scene. An image with more uniform surface cover, with less brightness variation, would show a much narrower histogram peak. If the scene includes extensive areas of different surface materials with distinctly different brightness, the histogram will show multiple peaks. 2, record 4, English, - histogram%20peak
