 label in a heatmap refers to the text that identifies rows, columns, or specific data points. Labels provide context and help users understand what each axis or cell represents.
 The data item refers to the actual value or metric represented by each cell in the heatmap. The intensity of the color in each cell corresponds to the magnitude of the data item
 The level in a heatmap refers to the range or category of values represented by specific color intensities. Levels are often defined by thresholds or gradients to show data distribution.
 A small box that pops up when you hover over a data point, showing more details about it.

Guidelines for Heat Map

• • Number of Digits: Use a maximum of 3 digits for ease of reading.
  • Decimal Points: limit to 2 decimal places for clarity. Example, use '12.34' instead of '12.3456'.
• • Diverging Colors: According to the diverging color palette, Heat Map diagrams can use these colors to represent conditional data.z
  • Sequential: In addition to a diverging color palette, you can also use a sequential color palette from green to red.
• Add a legend to explain the color gradation and corresponding value.
