WHY USE A DOT PLOT?
Dot Plots take up less space than other data viz formats such as bars, histograms, or bubble charts. Each dot represents a single data point, and placing multiple dots along a line or grid makes comparisons straightforward. Research indicates that Dot Plots are easier for the eye to comprehend than histograms or bar charts.
