What type of graph would you use to depict the relationship between: Is the number of days in the Intensive Care Unit(ICU LOS) related to gender?  If ICU LOS were two different variables and one was coded as categorical and the other as continuous, would you use the same graph to depict the relationship between the variables?   For example: 1. #  of days in ICU(as a continuous variable) and gender.. 2. # of days in ICU(as a categorical variable) and gender. Would you use the same graph for numbers 1 and 2? Which graphs would you choose?
