How should we get started with EDAV? We generated a flowchart that helps with finding the right graphs for certain purposes and data types. We divided into 7 major purposes of data visualization.

### Distribution {-}
When we want to show the distribution.

### Correlation {-}
When we are looking for possible corraltion among variables 

### Comparison {-}
When we want to compare samples. 

### Patterns {-}
When we are looking for patterns among variables or samples, for example, missing patterns.

### Statistical Values (ex. Median, Range) {-}
When we want to display straightforwardly with statistical values or properties of the data, such as range and median. 

### Time Related {-}
When we need to visualize data over time.

### Survey Data (Likert Scale) {-}
When we want to visualize a survey data that uses Likert scale.
