3D charts can be any of the above types,
except scatter, mixed, or 2-axis. Shown here
is a 3D pie chart.

Example
You may want to create a chart that compares how bird populations have changed in
two alpine sampling regions between 2007 and 2010. This data may first be presented
in a table with rows for Region 1 and Region 2. The researcher has counted the
number of birds in each region each year from 2007 through 2010, thus having 4 data
points
(or values) for each region.
