Data vizualisation

Hi All.

 

I have started a course on data visualization on line.

 

Although i thought i understood the course i got a collogue to send me some (any) data  across to see if i could make sense of it, understand the data and then work out what type of graphs and charts to use to visualize the data.

When the data came i didnt have a clue.

Could some one please give me some pointers on where to start

 

thanks in advance

    Paulj1202 The resolution of the screenshot is way to low to see what's in it. But by judging the general outline it looks quite messy and it seems to have been grouped/summarized in some way already.

    Perhaps your colleague can explain better than any of us here what the data is about.

      Hi Riny
      Thanks for your reply.
      the data relates to sales, purchases etc.
      I was hoping to be able to visualize the data in chart/graph form and was really looking for some pointers

        Paulj1202 Sorry but that's still rather vague. show some data first. Perhaps you can save your file on OneDrive (or similar) and provide a link here giving access to the file.
