You'll see how to use R to interrogate and analyze your data, and then use the D3 JavaScript library to format and display that data in an elegant, informative, and interactive way. You will learn how to gather data effectively, and also how to understand the philosophy and implementation of each type of chart, so as to be able to represent the results visually.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  With the popularity of the R language, the art and practice of creating data visualizations is no longer the preserve of mathematicians, statisticians, or cartographers. As technology leaders, we can gather metrics around what we do and use data visualizations to communicate that information. \u003cem\u003ePro Data Visualization using R and JavaScript\u003c\/em\u003e combines the power of the R language with the simplicity and familiarity of JavaScript to display clear and informative data visualizations. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  Gathering and analyzing empirical data is the key to truly understanding anything. We can track operational metrics to quantify the health of our products in production. We can track quality metrics of our projects, and even use our data to identify bad code. Visualizing this data allows anyone to read our analysis and easily get a deep understanding of the story the data tells.        \u003c\/p\u003e    What you’ll learn\u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003eA rich understanding of how to gather, and analyze empirical data \u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eHow to tell a story with data using data visualizations \u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eWhat types of data visualizations are best to use for the story that you want to tell with your data \u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eA comprehensive introduction to the R language, covering all the essentials  \u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eExploration of how to construct interactive data visualizations using JavaScript and JavaScript libraries \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003c\/ul\u003e  Who this book is for      \u003cp\u003e     Developers at all levels interested in data visualization, beginning to intermediate engineering managers, statisticians, mathematicians, economists and any others interested in data visualization.         \u003c\/p\u003e     Table of Contents\u003col\u003e   \u003cli\u003eTechniques for Data Visualization  \u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eThe R Language  \u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eA Deeper Dive into R  \u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eData Visualization with D3  \u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eVisualizing Spatial Information from Access Logs (Data Maps)  \u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eVisualizing Defects over Time (Time Series)  \u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eBar Charts  \u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eCorrelation Analysis with Team Dynamics (Scatterplot and Bubble Chart) \u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eBalancing Delivery with Quality (Parallel Coordinates Chart) \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Apress","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47139381838064,"sku":"9781430258070","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781430258070_p0.jpg?v=1763751016","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781430258070","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
