Developing a motion chart is a technique can be used to avoid the problems stated above. It can avoid chart junk which contains extraneous visual elements that distract from the message which should not be in the chart. It prevents distracting patterns, overbearing colors and even unnecessary grids and outlines. According to Edward Tufte, chartjunk can turn bores into disasters, but it can never rescue a thin data set. It also helps to improve standardized scale size of each circle. It improves the correctness and effectiveness as the information conveyed by visualization is more readily perceived than information in other. Besides that, data ink ratio can be maximized. The unimportant information can be eliminated for the sake of simplicity without loss of data information. Moreover, sufficient data and information can be provided for the chart. It provides tagging and enough data to show the playfulness of the chart. It can make a chart more informative by improving data density. Furthermore, it can make it more interactive for the chart. It allows users to directly interact with and dynamically change the visualization according to their viewing purposes.
Step 1 is generating or gathering data set from the website of Malaysian General Election GE12 and GE13. Step 2 is filtering and processing data by using Microsoft Excel to do the calculation of data set of voting results. Step 3 is to do the visualization by sketching the motion chart on paper. Step 4 is to choose the toolkit or programming language used to develop the chart that is Google Code Developer. Step 5 is the process of generating code/ editing coding which can be implemented by debugging the code, fixing the code error and then testing the code. Last step i...

... the dimension of size or color, a default size and color are applied respectively. Our planning is to use the method of interpolation and regression analysis in order to fill in partially or completely missing data values. The ability of logarithmic, exponential and polynomial models can be added in the chart for transforming data variables dynamically and effectively.

A person should be able to describe the monthly costs to operate a business, or talk about a marathon pace a runner ran to break a world record, graphs on a coordinate plane enable people to see the data. Graphs relay information about data in a visual way. If a person read almost any newspaper, especially in the business section, they will probably encounter graphs.
Again, I had difficulty selecting which piece to use for my second piece. Ultimately I selected Temptation, 1880 William-Adolphe Bouguereau. The dimensions are 39x52 inches and is oil on canvas.

Answer: Graphs are necessary to study the general trends and have a quick look of the data; however, the summary indices are necessary to interpret results accurately. Graphical presentation is not that accurate as is the summary
Then, a scatterplot was formed with the data (Figure 3). It was a crucial graph as it helped determine the outliers in the information (see Appendix D for the outlier chart). Some of these outliers were located in towns with really low population numbers (the average population for an American city or town is around 20000)

I organized my times, trails, and averages into a table and a graph to present my information.
Collected data were subjected to analysis of variance using the SAS (9.1, SAS institute, 2004) statistical software package. Statistical assessments of differences between mean values were performed by the LSD test at P = 0.05.

When we are born, we can see but we cannot put anything into words. When we’re older we visualize. Visualization is the way we interact with the world. Dillard discusses how some people who have corrected and restored their sight from blindness are delighted with their sight. They see things as they really are in a way that those who always see things cannot. Like an object is seen in shape and color rather than in its name and purposes. Those that have not seen never take the beauty of sight for granted. Both Annie Dillard and John Berger agree that we cannot see clearly. Berger thinks it is because of external influences while Dillard thinks because nature and ignorance won’t let us.
A subcomponent of written communication is visualizations. Visualizations as discussed earlier can be as simple as a picture or graph and most commonly used in aviation as maps and charts. Most newer aircraft display a moving map to increase situational awareness and geographical location of the aircraft. This visualization tool quickly and precisely indicates where the aircraft is located so
As what can be seen in the data part of the report, the given values for x and y can be interpreted as a graph. With this graph, it can be interpreted to describe the phenomenon that is taking place. This is how graphs and equations can help the study of science understand how and why things are taking place.
An important part of decision making is having a clear understanding of the information used to base decisions from. Charts can be valuable when a need to represent numerical data would benefit communicating information visually. Some of the most important aspects of a good chart are to select the right type of chart (or graph) that can best characterize the data, also, to keep the design simple in order for an audience to easily understand the information.
