Scatter Charts

Scatter Charts are graphical representations of data points plotted on a two-dimensional coordinate system. Each data point is represented by a marker, such as a dot or a symbol, with its position determined by the values of two variables. One variable is plotted along the horizontal axis (x-axis), while the other variable is plotted along the vertical axis (y-axis). Scatter charts are particularly useful for visualizing the relationship or correlation between two variables. They allow analysts to identify patterns, trends, or clusters within the data and assess the strength and direction of the relationship between the variables. Scatter charts are commonly used in fields such as statistics, engineering, and social sciences for exploratory data analysis, hypothesis testing, and predictive modeling. They provide a powerful tool for gaining insights into the nature of relationships between variables and making data-driven decisions based on observed patterns.

Each example has buttons below to open a StackBlitz project for the framework you selected. The examples separate data, options and templates for clarity. The fonts are loaded in the head of the HTML template. The styles are loaded in various ways according to their framework. Please note that Carbon Charts components have slightly different names for the same chart type in each framework.
