Reflection

○ What ideas/suggestions from Claus Wilke’s helped shape your visualization?\
In chapter 4, Claus Wike talked about using color scales in visualization. He suggested us to use color to do three things: \
    1. To distinguish \
    2. To represent \
    3. To highlight \
However, in chapter 19, He also mentioned about implement color can be misleading sometimes. So I'm trying to implement his ideas in my chart trying to convey a clear idea using color scale. \

○ Is there anything more you wish you could do with this data?\
Something else I want to do with this dataset is to investigate the correlation between geographic locations and fruit consumptions. For example, if countries from which certain area are more likely to consume bananas, etc. So it would be interesting to make a map by fruit type.  \

○ What were the most interesting or frustrating technical aspects of doing this?\
I tried to highlight the contour of the map when hover onto certain country, but I wasn't able to figure it out. Also, I wanted to link two graphs together but I didn't find any useful information to do that, either. \
