About the lecture

In this lecture, we think about tables and graphs as ways of presenting data, focusing in particular on: (i) tables as a way of representing very precise but relatively simple datasets; (ii) graphs as a way of representing data which can be more quickly compared, but with potentially less immediately apparent accuracy.
