A line chart is a graphical representation of data that changes over time. It is useful for showing trends and patterns in data over a period of time. In a line chart, data points are plotted on a grid and connected by straight lines. The x-axis of a line chart typically represents time, while the y-axis represents the values of the data being plotted. Line charts can have multiple data series, each represented by a different line on the chart. Line charts are commonly used in business, finance, and scientific research to visualize data and understand trends.
