Part Using R

Exploratory data analysis is the inspection of a table, before a model is chosen, of the unit of a row, the missing and implausible values, the marginal distributions, and the associations that remain after grouping. It constrains the models that are worth writing down. It is not an estimate, a test, or a causal claim.
