8. Sliding Bar Diagram: Sliding bar diagrams are similar to duo-directional bar diagrams.
Whereas absolute values are shown by duo-directional bar diagrams, the percentage is
shown using sliding bar diagrams. The length of each sliding bar is same, which represents
100%. The bars can be drawn horizontally or vertically.

Example: Represent the following data by a sliding bar diagram.
