Area chart
An area chart, like a line chart, displays the evolution of numeric variables over a continuous period of time. However, in an area chart, the area between the line and x-axis is filled with colour or texture.

Dot plot
A dot plot is a type of graph in which the dots are connected to show changes or differences. It’s an alternative to the grouped bar chart or slope chart.

Line chart
A line chart is a type of chart that displays the evolution of one or several numeric variables over a continuous interval or time period.

Single line chart
Multiple lines chart
Line column chart
A line column chart is a type of visualization that combines both line and column charts together, using dual axes displayed on the left and right sides of the chart.

Slope chart
A slope chart looks like a line chart, but unlike the line chart, it has only two data points for each line. The change between two data points can be easily identified with connected lines (slope up means increase, slope down means decrease).

Stacked area chart
As a variation of a simple area chart, a stacked area chart displays the changes of value of multiple data series over a period of time.

Streamgraph
A streamgraph is a variation of a stacked area chart. Instead of displaying values on top of a fixed, straight baseline at the bottom of the stack, the values of the streamgraph are displaced around a central baseline.
