The bar chart illustrates the number of times, in thousands, that three computer packages (ActiveX, Java and Net) were downloaded from the Internet over a period of five weeks.
Overall, ActiveX was the most downloaded package in every week, while Net consistently recorded the lowest number of downloads. Moreover, all three packages showed an overall upward trend, peaking in Week 5.
In Week 1, ActiveX had the highest number of downloads, at about 70 thousand. The figures for Java and Net were lower, at approximately 40 thousand and 20 thousand respectively. In the following week, downloads of ActiveX rose sharply to around 80 thousand, while Java increased slightly to about 50 thousand. Net also experienced growth, reaching roughly 30 thousand downloads.
From Week 3 onwards, the popularity of all three packages continued to increase. ActiveX climbed steadily from about 100 thousand downloads in Week 3 to a peak of around 120 thousand in Week 5. Similarly, Java rose from approximately 60 thousand to 80 thousand over the same period. Although Net remained the least downloaded package throughout the period, its figure also increased significantly, from about 40 thousand in Week 3 to 50 thousand in the final week.
