This is hardly a programming question, so if you're a purest feel free to read no further.
Are there any good examples on how to display multidimensional data on a computer screen? I don't know how many dimensions there will be, though anything more than 10 I suspect will be rare. I can think of the obvious solution, but I don't know if this results in truly humanly readable feedback:
- map first dimension onto x axis
- map second dimension onto y axis
- map third dimension onto dot Radius
- map fourth dimension onto dot Red component
- map fifth dimension onto dot Green component
- map sixth dimension onto dot Blue component
- map seventh dimension onto dot spiky-edge-property
Does anyone know of any existing software that elegantly handles this problem?
