<p>According to Michael Friendly and Daniel Denis, the defining characteristic distinguishing scatter plots from line charts is the representation of specific observations of bivariate data where one variable is plotted on the horizontal axis and the other on the vertical axis. The two variables are often abstracted from a physical representation like the spread of bullets on a target or a geographic or celestial projection.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>While Edmund Halley created a bivariate plot of temperature and pressure in 1686, he omitted the specific data points used to demonstrate the relationship. Friendly and Denis claim his visualization was different from an actual scatter plot. Friendly and Denis attribute the first scatter plot to <a href="John_Herschel" title="John Herschel">John Herschel</a>. In 1833, Herschel plotted the angle between the central star in the constellation Virgo and <a href="Gamma_Virginis" title="Gamma Virginis">Gamma Virginis</a> over time to find how the angle changes over time, not through calculation but with freehand drawing and human judgment.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_4-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Overview">Overview</h2></div>

<p>A scatter plot can be used either when one continuous variable is under the control of the experimenter and the other depends on it or when both continuous variables are independent. If a <a href="Parameter" title="Parameter">parameter</a> exists that is systematically incremented and/or decremented by the other, it is called the <i>control parameter</i> or <a href="Independent_variable" class="mw-redirect" title="Independent variable">independent variable</a> and is customarily plotted along the horizontal axis. The measured or <a href="Dependent_variable" class="mw-redirect" title="Dependent variable">dependent variable</a> is customarily plotted along the vertical axis. If no dependent variable exists, either type of variable can be plotted on either axis and a scatter plot will illustrate only the degree of <a href="Correlation" title="Correlation">correlation</a> (not <a href="Causality" title="Causality">causation</a>) between two variables.

</p><p>A scatter plot can suggest various kinds of correlations between variables with a certain <a href="Confidence_interval" title="Confidence interval">confidence interval</a>. For example, weight and height would be on the <span class="texhtml mvar" style="font-style:italic;">y</span>-axis, and height would be on the <span class="texhtml mvar" style="font-style:italic;">x</span>-axis. Correlations may be positive (rising), negative (falling), or null (uncorrelated). If the dots' pattern slopes from lower left to upper right, it indicates a positive <a href="Correlation" title="Correlation">correlation</a> between the variables being studied. If the pattern of dots slopes from upper left to lower right, it indicates a negative correlation. A line of <a href="Curve_fitting" title="Curve fitting">best fit</a> (alternatively called 'trendline') can be drawn to study the relationship between the variables. An equation for the correlation between the variables can be determined by established best-fit procedures. For a linear correlation, the best-fit procedure is known as <a href="Linear_regression" title="Linear regression">linear regression</a> and is guaranteed to generate a correct solution in a finite time. No universal best-fit procedure is guaranteed to generate a correct solution for arbitrary relationships. A scatter plot is also very useful when we wish to see how two comparable data sets agree to show nonlinear relationships between variables. The ability to do this can be enhanced by adding a smooth line such as <a href="Local_regression" title="Local regression">LOESS</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Furthermore, if the data are represented by a mixture model of simple relationships, these relationships will be visually evident as superimposed patterns.

</p><p>The scatter diagram is one of the <a href="Seven_Basic_Tools_of_Quality" class="mw-redirect" title="Seven Basic Tools of Quality">seven basic tools</a> of <a href="Quality_control" title="Quality control">quality control</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>Scatter charts can be built in the form of <a href="Bubble_chart" title="Bubble chart">bubble</a>, marker, or/and <a href="Line_chart" title="Line chart">line charts</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Example">Example</h2></div>

<p>For example, to display a link between a person's lung capacity, and how long that person could hold their breath, a researcher would choose a group of people to study, then measure each one's lung capacity (first variable) and how long that person could hold their breath (second variable). The researcher would then plot the data in a scatter plot, assigning "lung capacity" to the horizontal axis, and "time holding breath" to the vertical axis.

</p><p>A person with a lung capacity of <span class="nowrap">400 <a href="Centilitre" class="mw-redirect" title="Centilitre">cl</a></span> who held their breath for <span class="nowrap">21.7 s</span> would be represented by a single dot on the scatter plot at the point (400, 21.7) in the <a href="Cartesian_coordinate_system" title="Cartesian coordinate system">Cartesian coordinates</a>. The scatter plot of all the people in the study would enable the researcher to obtain a visual comparison of the two variables in the data set and will help to determine what kind of relationship there might be between the two variables.

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Scatter_plot_matrices">Scatter plot matrices</h2></div>

<p>For a set of data variables (dimensions) <i>X</i><sub>1</sub>, <i>X</i><sub>2</sub>, ... , <i>X</i><sub><i>k</i></sub>, the scatter plot matrix shows all the pairwise scatter plots of the variables on a single view with multiple scatterplots in a matrix format. For <span class="texhtml mvar" style="font-style:italic;">k</span> variables, the scatterplot matrix will contain <span class="texhtml mvar" style="font-style:italic;">k</span> rows and <span class="texhtml mvar" style="font-style:italic;">k</span> columns. A plot located on the intersection of row and <span class="texhtml mvar" style="font-style:italic;">j</span>th column is a plot of variables <i>X</i><sub><i>i</i></sub> versus <i>X</i><sub><i>j</i></sub>.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This means that each row and column is one dimension, and each cell plots a scatter plot of two dimensions.

</p><p>A <b>generalized scatter plot matrix</b><sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> offers a range of displays of paired combinations of categorical and quantitative variables. A <a href="Mosaic_plot" title="Mosaic plot">mosaic plot</a>, fluctuation diagram, or faceted <a href="Bar_chart" title="Bar chart">bar chart</a> may be used to display two categorical variables. Other plots are used for one categorical and one quantitative variables.
