Hi

Kindly revert whether below statement is true or false

Pareto chart is same as bar chart if the frequency data is sorted in ascending order

(PS : in week2 video 2 of "Describing Categorical Data - Charts of categorical data" it is mentioned that order can be ascending as well (@ 19:50 ) )

Regards

She also says it again in the video after this one. The one after the activity.

According to the answer guide, it can only be descending.

The course team seems to have modified the system to accept ascending order as a correct answer.
