After talking about various graphs, you might ask “What is a graph?”. It is a diagram that exhibits a relationship, often functional, between two sets o f numbers as a set of points having coordinates determined by the relationship. A pictorial device, such as a pie chart or bar graph, used to illustrate quantitative relationships. Two-dimensional drawing showing a relationship (usually between two set of numbers) by means of a line, curve, a series of bars, or other symbols. Typically, an independent variable is represented on the horizontal line (X- axis) and an dependent variable on the vertical line (Y-axis). The perpendicular axis intersect at a point called origin, and are calibrated in the units of the quantities represented. Though a graph usually has four quadrants representing the positive and negative values of the variables. A graph is a visual way to display information.

To make a graph, people often use a paper like this:

Fashion designers make graphs to analyze data. And line graph is a good choice, also it is related to math too. Comparing various sets of data can be complicated, but line graphs make it easy. The plotted peaks and dips on the grid allow you to monitor and compare improvement and decline. Line graphs are most often used by professionals and students.

What is textile math?

The mathematics in textile is known as textile mathematics. The ideas have been used as inspiration for a number of fiber arts including quilting, knitting, cross-stitch, crocheting, embroidery and weaving and spinning. A wide range of mathematical concepts have been used for it. Some techniques such as counted-thread embroidery are naturally geometrical,. Other kinds of textile has a meaning for the colorful physical expression in mathematical concepts. In textile, spinning, weaving, knitting, embroidery and fashion designing is done with the help of textile mathematics.
