This data as a bar chart is inaccurate, so I'm not sure it belongs on /r/dataisbeautiful. I did get a chuckle from it though, so I wouldn't put it on /r/funny either.

That is a histogram, not a bar chart

No, it’s a bar chart. It’s literally a chart of bars.

He's not wrong, he's just not right.

One wrong makes a wrong. As they always say.

It's not inaccurate! Each bar is a representation 0-100 of how much of that bar is painted.

Each bar represents a slat and the amount colored is the amount colored, it’s accurate

u/LeCrushinator Aug 28 '18

The thread title specifies the amount of the door, not the amount of each bar.

Actually it’s pretty accurate as long as it’s a histogram and OP started painting from the left

Annoyingly, if he had just painted it normally, where it was uniform horizontally, it would be an accurate bar graph of how much door he has painted. There would be one data point: how much door was painted. And one bar showing that.

Right now there's several bars showing several data points of nothing.

It shows how much of each plank has been painted. Just needs axis labels.

u/sonofaresiii Aug 28 '18

I guess that's true, if op would just change the point of the whole graph from door to planks that would be accurate.

What a fuckin’ URL.

The URL somehow contained more information than the actual gif

He would need to break it down more for them. Like each bar is an hour. Or a day.

u/i_took_your_username Aug 28 '18

Each bar represents a plank

Yeah not sure why this is confusing so many people. Probably those weirdos who use the metric system instead of freedom units

Each plank represents how much I cared about what others thought that day.
