Briefly |
Make a graph with one numeric attribute. Then choose Box Plot from the popup menu in the graph. |
A box plot lets you see a distribution at a glance. Split box plots are good for comparing the distributions across different groups, too.
A box plot shows the distribution of a single numeric attribute (that is, it has numbers for values, as does speed in the picture).
1. Go to an Inspector or the Case Table and find the name of the attribute at the head of a column.
2. Drag that name to the axis of a graph. That will create a dot plot.
3. Find the popup menu in the upper-right corner of the graph.
4. Choose Box Plot, and you're done.
