A box and whisker plot is used to show range, you must first find out the quartiles. The first quartile is the left edge of the box, the third quartile is the right edge of the box and the median is the line in the middle. The whiskers are the highest and lowest values in your data set. Sometimes if you have a value in your data that is a long way out then you may not use it as a whisker, this is an outlier.
A boxplot is a way of depicting groups of numerical data. They have many lines extending vertically from the whiskers (boxes).
