Lesson#89: Example of a bar chart with life expectancy data
Hello reader. This post is a discussion about an example of a bar chart making with life expectancy data of all countries.
Here I am having data in 4 columns. Country, Both sexes life expectancy, Female life expectancy, Male life expectancy. I will represent this data with help of a bar chart.
In a different sheet, you go to Insert>Charts>Bar Chart
A blank chart will appear like the above picture. There you right-click on the blank chart and click on Select Data.
Click the button beside the Chart data range
There you have selected the data including the column headings.
And the chart will appear like this. There you have to make some changes. You have to increase the chart area by dragging the corner down and you can change the layout.
You can add fields to the chart by clicking the “+” button in the upper right corner of the chart or
You can click on Quick Layout to change the layout of the chart.
