Hi Mahesh,

  • These two different graphs.
  • Line chart work best for continuous data, whereas bar chart work best for categorical data.
  • Continuous data is quantitative, you cannot count the number of different values. This includes data like sales, height, profit, etc.


Hope this helps

Hi Mahesh Line chart: we use when we have to show the trend. Like to show 12 months sales or last 11 Weeks sales and so on. Bar Chart: we use to show comparisons among categories. Regards, Manish Virmani
