After reading the article we made this #boxplot using #LabPlot, an open source data analysis and visualization software.
The plot doesn’t provide answers, it rather invites some thinking.

“doesn’t provides answers but invites thinking”… Nope. Doesn’t even help that as the X-Axis is unlabelled

A boxplot is a 1-dimensional plot. The data points are jittered along the x-axis to make them less crowded.

This viz is shit because nobody can understand it.
1 dimensional visualizations are fucking stupid. The whole point of data viz is to simplify complex information; not make simple info complex.
Yeah, not a good way to visualize as the relationship between medal count and HDI is not obvious as only outliers get highlighted. There’s nothing wrong with a traditional 2D scatter plot and axis-related box plots plotted against each axis separately
