A box plot is a graph that indicates the spread of the values in a data set. Box plots are a standardized way of representing the distribution of data based on five important numbers: a minimum boundary, the first quartile (Q1), the median (or second quartile Q2), the third quartile (Q3), and a maximum boundary.
