Visualize the distribution of data using plots such as histograms, pie charts, or word clouds. For example, use a histogram to group data into bins and display the number of elements in each bin.
This example shows how to add a legend to a pie chart that displays a description for each slice.
Offset Pie Slice with Greatest Contribution
This example shows how to create a pie graph and automatically offset the pie slice with the greatest contribution.
Label Pie Chart With Text and Percentages
When you create a pie chart, MATLAB labels each pie slice with the percentage of the whole that slice represents.
Color Analysis with Bivariate Histogram
This example shows how to adjust the color scale of a bivariate histogram plot to reveal additional details about the bins.
Control Categorical Histogram Display
This example shows how to use histogram
to effectively view categorical data.
Create Heatmap from Tabular Data
This example shows how to create a heatmap from a table and how to modify the heatmap appearance.
Create Word Cloud from String Arrays
This example shows how to create a word cloud from plain text by reading it into a string array, preprocessing it, and passing it to the wordcloud
function.
Explore Table Data Using Parallel Coordinates Plot
This example shows how to create a parallel coordinates plot from a table and how to modify the appearance of the plot.
