Stump the Snailman
« on: February 11, 2011, 08:53:30 AM »
After reading another post i was inspired to create this one. Pick an AH related question that even Snailman could not answer. ( and asking we are getting the  B-29 or M18( sorry BAR  :D do not count). My question would be: What is the number of European players on during the off peak hours as opposed to peak hours ?

 :rofl  :banana:

It sooooo easy to stump da snail.... because actually the range of question I could answer at all is limited. Very limited.  The above one is not one of them. As far as I know the score & stats pages don't show nationality and time of play  ;)

I would tell you to ask Lusche, but that would be redundant... :D (very sheepish grin)

What's the difference between a histogram and a bar graph? Between a polygon and a line graph?  :aok

Do you mean European Squirrels or American Squirrels?

Histogram v. Bar Graph: spacing!  A bar graph has distinct gaps between variables while a histogram's bars are butted up against each other.  The reason for this is show if the x-axis variables are continuous or not. So if you asked what people's choice of drink was in the morning; and your variables were coffee, soda, water, or orange juice, you'd make a bar graph because each variable is unique and independent of each other (Nominal Measurement).  However, if you wanted to display how many cups of coffee people had in the morning, you would use a histogram because of 1, 2, 3 cups is a continuous variable (Interval/Ratio Measurement).

A polygon is pretty much a line graph except your line reaches 0 on the x-axis for 1 below your lowest observation and 1 above your highest observation.  Honestly I'm not sure of the point of this, maybe it's too show that you don't have data for anything outside those bounds, maybe it's just to make it look like a "full" shape.
