Summary

There was a lot of information covered in this chapter, but these are all useful tools. You learned about 14 different kinds of charts, including infographics, word clouds, bar charts, stacked bar charts, histograms, waterfall charts, line charts, Pareto charts, pie charts, scatter plots, bubble charts, heat maps, tree maps, and geographic maps. Whew! Good job! Make sure you know them by sight and by when they are appropriate to use. Pay attention to what types of variables they use and how many. This wraps up the chapters on reporting and visualizations. Next, we will dive right into the higher level of data governance!
