  space for a huge amount of information you have
  identified. You need to structure your result

Include Figures

• Anything that is an image, map, chart, graph,
  picture, or any other illustration is a figure.
• Every figure that you include should have a brief
  description below it. Moreover, the included
  figure should also have an appropriate citation.
• The graphs are the most commonly used figures in
  the result section as these figures show the
  required relationship between the data.

  of the figure at its bottom.

Include Tables

• The tables are a list of information organized in
  the form of rows and columns.
• They help outlay the numerical values and helps
  the readers to understand the collected data.
• The use of a table is suggested when a student
  has huge information that is difficult to display
  in the form of text. If your data fits within a
  table of three rows and columns, it is better to
  present it in a text format.
•  Every table that you include should have a table
  number and a table name at the top of the table.
  Similar to the figure number, you need to refer
  the table number in the main text of the result
  section. At the bottom of the table, the students
  can include notes section for additional details.
