graphing
Charting data visually
Graphing is the act of representing data or mathematical relationships visually on a coordinate system or chart.
In math class, graphing typically means plotting points or equations on axes: We spent the hour graphing linear equations.
The term extends to any visual data representation: She's graphing sales figures for the quarterly report.
