Summary

Throughout this book, we've explored various programs that help create, combine, reformat, transpose, and summarize datasets and perform other data-related actions. In this chapter, we learned about the role of data visualization. The various charts that were discussed in this chapter should help you narrate your data story. Plotting the same data in various charts should have highlighted the pros and cons of using charts by showcasing how the one-chart-fits-all data approach won't be the best option for your data.

In the next chapter, we will learn about the reporting and output delivery system.
