What is an appendix?
Answer
An appendix (plural: appendices) is a section at the end of a piece of academic writing that contains non-essential information on the topic that still might be helpful for the reader.
An appendix might typically contain charts, graphs, maps, images, or raw statistical data.
For example, you might summarise the results of a test in the ‘Results’ section of a dissertation, then include the full data as an appendix to add clarity.
