Box Plots

Box-plots (complementing stem-leaf plots and histograms) are some of the most useful and most used graphical methods in statistical data analysis. Every professional package should be able to draw box-plots.

Various Boxplot Derivations (although these are lesser priority):

Venn Diagrams (Overlapping Data)

3D Pie Chart with different heights for different pieces

Please Don't Do It
Pie charts with different heights have been deemed among the worst graphics representations. The extra-dimension does NOT bring any additional information and annihilates the main concept behind the pie chart.

   11. Features that appear meaningful should have meaning.
   [...]
   Consider the three variations on a pie chart in Figure 2, all of which attempt
   to display the same data. The towering slices in the multi-height design (Figure 2A)
   are the chart's dominant features, but in many published examples have no meaning.
   The less exotic 3D pie chart (Figure 2B) has problems of its own.
