See many important tricks to get the chart to do what you want. 8) (11:05) Why the PivotTable Rules over other methods for creating Frequency Distributions for Continuous Quantitative Data such as FREQUENCY Array Function and Data Analysis Histogram feature. The reason is that we can do “on the fly” Data Analysis much more easily when you add a Slicer and filter the PivotTable and Chart. 9) (11:56) Adding Criteria or Filters to a PivotTable and Chart with the Slicer feature. 10) (12:33) Filtering PivotTable and Chart with the Slicer feature for “on the fly” Data Analysis is why PivotTables Rule!!! 11) (13:17) After Filtering, we see that we should change the chart to better fit our Data Analysis Reporting needs.
