Tips include making sure you have a REPL to hand and using tools like gRaphael to generate graphs against pretty much everything, since until you’ve seen their shape you won’t know if they are interesting or not. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/berg">berg</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/data">data</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/exploratoryprogramming">exploratoryprogramming</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/graphael">graphael</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/graphing">graphing</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/programming">programming</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/repl">repl</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/tom-armitage">tom-armitage</a></p>
