Histogram
The frequency distribution is the tool used to understand and describe
the variation among units in a population.
A histogram is the sample analog of the frequency distribution of a
population

Box-and-Whisker Plots
The box-and-whisker (B&W) plot is another compact way of
representing a population with variability, and it is especially
useful when comparing several distributions with respect to their
central value and dispersion.

Data Analysis
Final castings showing burn in defects due to too high pour
in temps.
Tap out temp is too high center about 2570F ;
Range = 2597 2537 = 60F
Pour out temp is too high center about 2560F ;
Range = 2595 2495 = 100F
it looks like the temperature drop is only 10F

Recommendation
1) Adjust target for tap out temperature to 2560F then
-10F gives pour out at target temperature 2550F
2) Reduce variability of pour out temp. How?
