It considers a variety of common graphic communication scenarios among those that arise most frequently in practical applications. The book is organized in two parts: representing data (Part I) and representing processes (Part II). The first part deals with the graphical representation of data. It starts with an introductory chapter on the types of variables, then guides the reader through the most common data visualization scenarios ? i.e.: representing magnitudes, proportions, one variable as a function of the other, groups, relations, bivariate, trivariate and geospatial data. The second part covers various tools for the visual representation of processes; these include timelines, flow-charts, Gantt charts and PERT diagrams. In addition, the book also features four appendices which cover cross-chapter topics: mathematics and statistics review, Matplotlib primer, color representation and usage, and representation of geospatial data. Aimed at junior and senior undergraduate students in various technical, scientific, and economic fields, this book is also a valuable aid for researchers and practitioners in data science, marketing, entertainment, media and other fields. 606 $aInformation visualization 606 $aPython (Computer program language) 606 $aComputer graphics 606 $aData and Information Visualization 606 $aPython 606 $aComputer Graphics 615 0$aInformation visualization. 615 0$aPython (Computer program language) 615 0$aComputer graphics. 615 14$aData and Information Visualization. 615 24$aPython. 615 24$aComputer Graphics. 676 $a14,226 700 $aBianconi$b Francesco$01314029 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910861098903321 996 $aData and Process Visualisation for Graphic Communication$94163480 997 $aUNINA
