5. Recommend specific chart types and visualization techniques that best represent the data and meet the goal.
6. Explain how to integrate the visualizations with the preferred tools, if provided.

Output format A structured guide with numbered steps, including data extraction, cleaning, trend identification, and visualization recommendations. Use bullet points and clear headings for readability.
