There are five primary types of graphs, with variations on them:-

1) Line diagram - in various styles with or without smoothing.

2) Bar - as Simple bar, Multiple bar, Sub-divided and Duo-directional or Bi-lateral diagrams.

3) Circular or pie diagram.

4) Polar graph (amplitude v. angle; not the same as the Pie chart above)

5) Column graph (like the bar charts but with vertical instead of horizontal stripes)

Microsoft also went through a phase of inventing some very odd, other types of "chart" (to use its word) but these were of little or no mathematical value, and seemed primarily for sales presentations and the like.
