A __________is a visual representation of a set of key business measures"
dashboard
• the process of displaying data (often in large quantities) in a meaningful fashion
to provide insights that will support better decisions.
Data visualization -
can be used to determine exactly how many units of a certain product were sold
in a particular month, or to compare one month to another
Tabular data
• A _______chart provides the means to:
• easily compare overall sales of different products (Product C sells the least, for
example);
• identify trends (sales of Product D are increasing), other patterns (sales of
Product C is relatively stable while sales of Product B fluctuates more over time),
and exceptions (Product E's sales fell considerably in September).
visual
• A _______is a visual representation of a set of key business measures. It is
derived from the analogy of an automobile's control panel, which displays speed,
gasoline level, temperature, and so on.
dashboard
, • A _____column chart compares values across categories using vertical
rectangles;
clustered
• a _____column chart displays the contribution of each value to the total by
stacking the rectangles;
stacked
• a __________chart compares the percentage that each value contributes to a
total.
100% stacked column
• A ____chart displays this by partitioning a circle into pie-shaped areas showing
the relative proportion.
pie
• ______charts present more information than pie or line charts alone but may
clutter the observer's mind with too many details if too many data series are
used; thus, they should be used with care.
Area
• ______charts show the relationship between two variables. To construct a
scatter chart, we need observations that consist of pairs of variables.
Scatter
• A _________ is a type of scatter chart in which the size of the data marker
corresponds to the value of a third variable; consequently, it is a way to plot three
variables in two dimensions.
