Star Plot - Cars



Star plots are very visual plots that allow viewers to visualize the variables at hand. Star plots can be use  virtually any type of information or variable objects that are comparable. Each obvervations is plotted as it's own star, and the radii show the different characteristics of the variables of each observation. Star plots are useful in finding out which of the observations are most similar. The figure shown above compares different types of cars, and the variables include length, mileage, price, headroom and more. This is a star plot of 16 cars as it presents each car as its own star and each is composed differently as you o through the variables for each vehicle.
