Visualizing Economic Impact with Matplotlib

This repository demonstrates how to build a clean, executive-friendly scatter plot using Matplotlib, focused on economic impact vs time, handling:

• Logarithmic scales without harming readability
• Custom tick formatting (K / M)
• Grid control (horizontal and vertical)
• Axis limits based on real data
• Editorial-style annotations

Why this matters

Poorly configured charts distort analysis. This example shows how small configuration choices can dramatically improve clarity and trust.
