A system for analyzing data organized into data sets and for transforming the data sets into a visual representation of the data sets is provided. The system includes a memory, a first processor, and an output device. The memory is configured with a data structure for maintaining an arrangement of cells in a grid of rows and columns and for storing the data sets. The first processor is configured to map attributes of the data sets into visual representations of the data sets. The output device displays the visual representations of the data sets in the cells. A user can extract meaning from the data by visually comprehending the relationships between the data sets.
