6)Gantt Chart:

Gantt chart commonly used as an organisational tool for project management,.

Gantt Charts display a list of activities (or tasks) with their duration over time, showing when

each activity starts and ends.

This makes Gantt Charts useful for planning and estimating how long an entire project might

take. You can also see what activities are running in parallel to each other.

Gantt Charts are drawn within a table: rows are used for the activities and columns are used as the

time scale. The duration of each activity is represented by the length of a bar plotted along this time scale.

The start of the bar is the beginning of the activity and the end of the bar is when the activity should

finish.

Colour-coding the bars can be used to categorise the activities into groups.

To show the percentage of completion of an activity, a bar can be partially filled in, shaded differently or

use a different colour, to differentiate between what is done and what is left to do.

Connecting arrows can be used to show which tasks are dependent on each other and vertical line

running through the chart is used to highlight the current date.
