A dot plot is a type of graph that shows the frequency of data points in a distribution by placing a dot above the corresponding value on a number line. It allows for a visual representation of the general shape of the distribution, including any clusters, gaps, or outliers. The mean, median, and mode can also be determined from a dot plot, but they are not explicitly shown like in other types of graphs such as a box plot or histogram. A dot plot does not show the relationship between two variables or the interquartile range.
