Description:

Matplotlib can be used to create box-and-whisker plots to display statistics. These dense visualizations pack much information into a compact form, including the median, 25th and 75th percentiles, interquartile range, and outliers.

In this course, you'll learn how to work with all aspects of box-and-whisker plots, such as the use of confidence-interval notches, mean markers, and fill color. You'll also build grouped box-and-whisker plots.

Next, you'll create scatter plots and heatmaps, powerful tools in exploratory data analysis. You'll build standard scatter plots before customizing various aspects of their appearance. You'll then examine the ideal uses of scatter plots and correlation heatmaps.

You'll move on to visualizing composition, first using pie charts, building charts that explode out specific slices. Lastly, you'll build treemaps to visualize data with multiple levels of hierarchy.

Description:

Matplotlib is a Python plotting library used to create dynamic visualizations using pyplot, a state-based interface. You'll learn how to correctly install and use Matplotlib to build line charts, bar charts, and histograms in this course.

You'll create basic line charts out of randomly generated data. You'll learn how to use the plt.subplots() function, import data from a CSV file using pandas, and create and customize various line charts.


Additionally, you'll create figures holding more than one axes object, learn why and how to use the twinx() function, and create multiple lines in the same line chart with different y-axes for each line.

Moving on, you'll construct histograms that visualize multiple variables and approximate the cumulative probability density function. Lastly, you'll create some bar charts to represent categorical data.
