Box plot example
This distribution stretches farther toward larger values, creating a longer upper tail. The mean is pulled above the median, and the box plot compresses that asymmetry into quartiles, whiskers, and center statistics.
This is the data used by the live preview. Open the example in Vizvero to replace any cell, add series when the chart supports them, change chart settings, and export the result.
