•Pie Chart - A pie chart is a circular chart divided into proportional sectors, representing values.
•Doughnut Chart - Similar to a pie chart, but the doughnut chart can contain multiple types of data.
•Line Chart - Displays information as a series of data points connected by straight line segments.
•Simple Line Chart - Displays information as a line based on values without visible data points.
•Stacked Line Chart - This chart type is used when you want to analyze data with different units of measure.
•Stacked Bar Chart - Similar to a simple bar chart, but there are multiple data types with different units of measure stacked in the bars.
Optionally, you can type a title for the X and Y axis of the chart to make it easier to read the chart and recognize trends.
