When you hear the word "graph" what do you think of?

@torresjrjr So would a drawing of a basket of fruit be a graph in your mind?

@freemo @torresjrjr
That do is a graph.
I think if you give an x and y axis to any image it becomes a graph

Strictly speaking a graph is defined as:

> a diagram showing the relation between variable quantities, typically of two variables, each measured along one of a pair of axes at right angles.
