摘要：This paper briefly reviews the history of dynamic-interactive graphicsfor statistics, introduces an example of such graphics, and provides a fewglimpses as to the current state of things and the future trends we envision.The general conclusion is that dynamic-interactive graphics for statistics arethriving more than ever as they shift from the desktop to the internet. Thus,dynamic-interactive graphics are becoming increasingly important as they:1) provide non-experts in statistics with the means to carry out analyseson their own; and 2) teach the basic concepts of statistics to students andpractitioners with low to moderate mathematics skills. Their increasingpopularity makes the lessons learned over the past 26 years of research onthe subject more important than ever.
