In this article we will see how to automatically calculate and draw the mean (average), the median, the standard deviation and the mode of a barchart. For doing this we will use the jqPlot library.
Processing is also a programming language built for electronic artists or designer which consider programming as an essential part of their creative practice. Processing is actually built on the Java Programming language, so we could give a better definition of Processing as a programming environment.
Before you get started with this article, I suggest you to read the article about Hexagonal Binning. In that article this method of data aggregation is shown and explained in detail. Two scatterplots, generated from two different datasets are compared, and so a class of specific datasets are highlighted. In fact, analyzing “sparse” datasets can be difficult, especially when we are looking for trends or clusters.
Scatterplots are a straightforward way to visualize the data distribution in a XY plane, especially when we are looking for trends or clusters. But when you have a dataset with a large number of points, many of these data points can overlap. This overalpping effect can make difficult to see any trends or clusters.
