The correct choice for displaying running data where old information appears on the left side and new data on the right side is the Strip Chart. The Strip Chart is designed specifically for real-time data visualization, allowing you to monitor changes over time seamlessly. It exhibits an endless horizontal line that continuously scrolls as new data points are appended from the right, effectively moving the older data off the left side of the chart. This makes it an ideal choice for applications such as monitoring live sensor data or any situation requiring the observation of trends over time. In contrast, the Scope Chart primarily offers a more complex view by displaying the waveform data with the time domain representation, which is not specifically suited for continuously updated data like in a Strip Chart. The Sweep Chart, on the other hand, also visualizes data over time but focuses more on transient phenomena rather than the continuous scrolling effect. Lastly, the Step Chart is tailored for data that change in discrete steps rather than continuously flowing, making it less appropriate for the desired functionality of real-time monitoring with dynamic updates.
