• The readers do not need to read the text in a sequential manner.
• In simple definition, it is "Nonlinear" and "Non-sequential".

Some Examples of a Nonlinear Text:

• Flowchart
• Concept Diagram
• Line Graph
• Pie Chart/Graph
• Bar Graph

Similarities of Linear and Nonlinear Text:

• Texts can be neither be "Linear" nor "Nonlinear".
• Both are types of text that can be read.
• Both texts are used to inform the readers.
• These texts are important and is always used.
• These texts are part of our lives since these texts are one of the reason why our world is colorful.
