Venn and other plots
From BITS wiki
Venn diagram can be used to summarize categorical data and outline intersection between different datasets.
Building a Venn diagram for two lists is an easy task, but what about making one from 3, 4 or 5 list?
Please read the recent points of view by alexander Lex & nils Gehlenborg in Nature Methods (08/2014) about representing sets and intersections[1]

BITS scripts to create Venn pots from precomputed counts
Please refer to the wiki page Create Venn plots from counts and download the code from the BITS GitHub repo[2].
software to build venn diagrams
- R can generate venn diagrams from unlimited groups in minutes: here pieces of R code and examples (below a Venn graph example from 5 lists from the linked page)
Author: Thomas Girke, UC Riverside
- VennMaster - unlimited number of groups, JAVA
- Venn diagram webtool of PSB department of VIB - up to 3 groups, web

software to build BoxPlot diagrams
If Venn diagrams are nice to display recall data, Box plots are ideal to show data distribution in many more details than a simple average value. You can generate Bow plots in few clicks using the following web application.
- BoxPlotR a web-tool for generation of box plots
