visualization class, to train students on how to show different information in a clear, objective, effective and graphically
attractive way. In this exercise, the effect of normalizing was also shown, to remove the scaling effect of population size

normalization of larger population has much larger numbers, which may not be true when normalizing. And, the module forecast was
used to train the students in the regression part (curve fitting), they used the COVID-19 epidemic data as observations,
and looked for polynomial and exponential curves that fit the start of the outbreak (exponential phase). Below is a brief description
