A data analyst needs to demonstrate the occurrence of outliers in a dataset using a plot. Which plot type would you recommend and why?
- Bar graph
- Box plot
- Line graph
- Scatter plot
The Box plot is ideal for demonstrating outliers in a dataset. The 'whiskers' in a box plot represent the range for the bulk of the data, and any data point that falls outside of this range is visually represented as an outlier.
