Questions on creating visualizations from functions or data using high-level constructors such as Plot, ListPlot, Histogram, etc.
Plotting relates to the construction and customization of plots, diagrams, charts and other visualizations through the use of specialized construction functions such as Plot, ListPlot, Plot3D, etc. (plot family) and Histogram, BarChart, PieChart, etc. (chart family). Plotting includes both data and function visualization.
Questions solely about construction of graphics (including 3D) through the direct use of primitives, directives, and functions should use graphics.
Questions about creating visualizations using a mixture of visualization functions and additional elements may use both graphics and plotting.
