The results show the district's grade level above/below the national average. More detail on how this database was created is here. The results show the grade level above/below the tested grade of students.

This chart shows percentage increases (2014-2015, 2005-2015, 2010-2015) in median house values per square footage in the top 10 highest metro areas by 2015 annual average values. Data is from Zillow (http://www.zillow.com/research/data/): "Median ZHVI per sq. ft. ($): Median of the value of all homes per square foot. This number is calculated by taking the estimated home value for each home in a given region and dividing it by the home’s square footage."

Episodes are shown along the x-axis, and views are shown along the y-axis, with each line representing one of the six seasons. Some seasons had fewer episodes than others, and in those cases, the average views were used rather than null values.

The final episode of Season 6 aired last night, and during the reunion, there was controversy over a cast member possibly angling other cast members to cre

This example is of Alfred Barr's "Diagram of Stylistic Evolution from 1890 until 1935" as sketched by artist Ward Shelley, shown in Design for Information. It utilizes different shapes including: arcs, rectangles, lines, bezier curves; and four csv files with data for these shapes, to create the diagram.
