Answer

A is false but R is true.

Explanation
Bar charts and histograms are not the same. A bar chart or bar graph is a chart that presents categorical data with rectangular bars, where the heights or lengths of the bars are proportional to the values they represent. On the other hand, a histogram is a type of graph that provides a visual interpretation of numerical data by indicating the number of data points that lie within a range of values, and this corresponds to a vertical bar.
