Module# 9: Visual Multivariate analysis assignment

For this assignment I chose the dataset which was provided to us. I saw this data as a perfect candidate for the heatmap. Here is the code chunk-



The output is-
  

The color intensity here represent which players are active in those region. Moreover, darker red represent, that a player is highly active in that area, whereas, the darker blue means a player is less active in that area. The cluster groups similar players together.  
In the last assignment I had mentioned that multivariate graphs such as Correlograms or graphs which try to put too much information together could be off-putting to some. Plus they fail to get the meaning across to general audience. I don't like multivariate graphs like those. However I think Heatmaps are OK if implemented well.

Multivariate graphs don't incorporate the The 5 basic principels of design  well, because finding proximity and balance within the variables in these types of graphs become challenging. So, if we can find tune those variables we can make a good graphs.
