When to use it

• Use it when data is to be recorded manually, to ensure the data is accurately recorded and is easy to use later, either for direct interpretation or for transcription, for example into a computer.
• Use it when the recording involves counting, classifying, checking or locating.
• Use it when it is useful to check each measurement as it is recorded, for example that it is within normal bounds.
• Use it when it is useful to see the distribution of measures as they are built up.
