What's on this sheet
The symbol is a plain filled circle on every one of these sheets, and that is deliberate. A picture graph is counted, so the mark has to look identical every time and stay countable when it is small — a detailed character reads as several different things in a row of ten, and it ties the data to a mascot rather than to what is being measured.
Why this sheet works
Every row holds whole symbols only. Half a symbol is a real convention and a real source of quiet wrong answers on a generated sheet, so the numbers behind these graphs are always whole multiples of the key — the key can say “each stands for 5” and mean exactly that.
