Grid chart

1) The Grid Chart, also known as a Text Chart, is a versatile visualization tool primarily used to display categorical data along with textual information directly within the chart elements. This format is especially important for detailed data analysis where the visibility of specific numerical values or text labels enhances clarity and comprehension. 

2) In professional settings, Grid Charts facilitate precise data presentation and comparison, making them invaluable for reporting and decision-making processes. Their capacity to integrate detailed textual annotations directly with visual data representation makes Grid Charts essential for delivering rich, actionable insights.
