The document discusses scatter diagrams, which graph pairs of numerical data with one variable on each axis to identify relationships between them. Scatter diagrams are useful when variables are correlated and points fall along a line or curve. They are used to find correlations between two variables and predict behavior of one variable based on the other. The document provides examples of when to use scatter diagrams and limitations such as not showing exact correlation extent or multiple variable relationships. Benefits highlighted are showing two variable relationships, non-linear patterns, and simple plotting and observation. An example using test cases and employee designation data is presented.
