1. Local or business dedicated to printing, on different formats and dimensions of paper.
2. Shortening of graphic representation, which is commonly referred to as a graph, for the purposes of figures based on data, done by hand or by means of an office software-application such as Excel.
3. Point out an explanation or description that was made in detail in written or oral mode.
Etymology: by latin graphecafeminine of graphĭcus, with respect to the Greek γραφική, graphikḗfeminine of γραφικός, graphikós..
in syllables: grá-fi-ca.
Graph
In general terms, the graphic word refers to writing or printing and everything related to them. On the other hand, it is used to refer when in a certain situation one wants to realize that someone expresses himself with great detail, if he were drawing it with a brush on paper.
Are a graph and a graph the same regarding the handling of visual formats?
Yes, the linguistic difference lies only in a more widespread use of the masculine form, ‘a graph’, whose feminine equivalent can be expressed as ‘a graph’ or more precisely as ‘graphic representation’, in fact one can think of the first as a shortening of the second. Therefore, both genres are accepted to indicate a set of data reflected in a visual format, using for example a computer application such as Excel.
On the other hand, graphic does not apply to refer directly to a printer in any way. To what it says about a person who makes a descriptive account of something, the masculine mode can be adopted, for example, “That was very graphic”; “what a graphic” (exclaiming). It is important to observe these particularities because it is not common for the uses of a word to be so drastically influenced just by gender.
graphic representations
The data are largely numerical, although they can also be figures or signs, through lines, surfaces or symbols to determine the relationship they maintain with each other, while it can be a set of points, which are reflected in Cartesian coordinates and that will be used to analyze the behavior of a certain process or a set of signs or elements that allow us to decipher or interpret a phenomenon, among other issues.
We can find different types of graphic representations, among the most common and current are: numerical, used to represent the behavior or distribution of quantitative data of a population. This type of graph is manifested through visual images. On the other hand, the linear ones will represent the values in two Cartesian axes orthogonal to each other. More than anything, this type of graph is recommended when having to represent series over time, because it allows showing maximum and minimum values of a question.
Another type are bar charts, which will be used when you want to highlight the representation of percentages that refer to a total. What the bars allow is the representation of frequencies and they can be diagrammed horizontally or vertically, generally, to represent the bar graphs, so-called spreadsheets are used.
Then there are the circular graphs that will allow us to observe those internal data distributions that represent a fact, also in the form of percentages of a total. According to the interest of what you want to highlight, what is done is to separate the sector corresponding to the highest or lowest value. And finally, histograms, another type of very common graphs, which will be used when you want to represent samples grouped into intervals. It is formed by rectangles joined to each other, whose vertices of the base must coincide with the limits of the intervals.
