In the above scatter chart datasheet, the first three data pointsīelong to group A while the remaining data points belong to group B. The Group column in the datasheet can be used to organize individual data

The datasheet for a bubble chart contains values in the Size column, but is The datasheet for a scatter chart is organized as follows, with each row Markers used for the individual data points. The charts differ, however, in the style of Scatter charts and bubble charts are similar in many aspects, both using an
