A continuous variable map is one where each circle represents an actual number. It is unlike range-graded in that there can be an infinite number of circles. The graph above is showing the newspaper endorsements that each candidate got in the 2008 election. There are two size circles shown in the key and by that you can see the number of endorsements in each region. These graphs are good when an actual number is known rather than being estimated.
