Useful charts for business/data analysis in Excel 2016

You may not know that Excel 2016 added some useful new charts for analysing data.  I particularly like the Treemap, Box & Whisker and Pareto charts.  (The images below are taken from this Microsoft post, please see that link for more detail on these and other charts). The Treemap gives you a quick view of which categories are most significant:

 
The Box & Whisker chart gives you a very quick visual analysis of a set of data : the box shows you the lower quartile, median and upper quartile (with the mean shown as an asterisk), and the whiskers show you (by going out from the box by 1.5 times the interquartile range) the range of "non outlier" points.  Points outside the whiskers are shown, giving you a quick indication of any data which look like to be outliers:

The Pareto chart is a quick way to tell where you can get the "biggest bang for your buck", i.e. which areas/categories are the most significant ones (e.g. which customers produce most of your sales, or which category of policyholders produce the biggest claims, or which types of defects happen most often in a quality control process):
