It is most useful when comparing between several data sets. This template allows you to enter up to 70 individual data points for two data sets, and the box plots will be displayed automatically to reflect your data.

Histograms and box plots are graphical representations for the frequency of numeric data values. They aim to describe the data and explore the central tendency and variability before using advanced statistical analysis techniques. In this article, we will further discuss the similarities and differences between these two tools.
