Data & Algorithm (Data Visualization)

 Data  Visualization :-

Data Visualization is the process of translating large data sets and metrice into charts, graphic and other visuals. The resulting visual representing of data makes it easier to identify and share real - time trends, outliers, and new insights about information represented in the data. In easy words,

• Data Visualization is a set of data points and information that are represented graphically to make it easy and quick for user to understand.
• Data Visualization is good if it has a clear meaning, Purpose, and is very easy to interpret, without requiring context.
• Tools of data visualization provide an accessible way to see and understand trends, outliers, and patterns in data by using visual effects or elements such as a chart, graphs, and maps.

Characteristics of Data Visualization :-

1. It shows or visualizes data very clearly in an understandable manner.

2. It encourages viewers to compare different pieces of data.

3. It closely integrates statistical and verbal descriptions of data set. 

4.  It grabs our interest, focuses our mind, and keeps our eyes on message as human brain tends to focus on visual data more than written data. 

5. It also helps in identifying area that needs more attention and improvement.

6. Using graphical representation, a story can be told more efficiently. Also, it requires less time to understand picture than it takes to understand textual data.

Categories of Data Visualization :-

i. Numerical Data :-

1. Numerical data is also known as quantitative data.

2. Numerical data is any data where data generally represents amount such as height, weight, age of a person, etc.

3. Numerical data visualization is easiest way to visualize data.

4. It is generally used for helping others to digest large data sets and raw numbers in a way that makes it easier to interpret into action.

5. The type of visualization techniques that are used to represent numerical data visualization is Charts and Numerical Values. Examples are Pie Charts, Bar Charts, Averages, Scorecards, etc. 

6. Numerical data is categorized into two categories:

a. Continuous Data: It can be narrowed or categorized (Example: Height measurements).

b. Discrete Data: This type of data is not "continuous" (Example: Number of cars a household has).

ii. Categorical Data :-

1. Categorical data is also known as qualitative data. 

2. Categorical data is any data where data generally represents groups.

3. It simply consists of categorical variables that are used to represent characteristics such as a person's ranking, a person's gender, etc.

4. Categorical data visualization is all about depicting key themes, establishing connections, and lending context.

5. The type of visualization techniques that are used to represent categorical data is Graphics, Diagrams, and Flowcharts. Examples. are Word clouds, Sentiment Mapping, Venn diagram, etc.

6. Categorical data is classified into three categories:

a. Binary Data: In this, classification is based on positioning (Example: Agrees or Disagrees).

b. Nominal Data: In this, classification is based on attributes (Example: Male or Female). 

c. Ordinal Data : In this, classification is based on ordering of information (Example: Timeline or processes).
